Programme content

Computer engineering students receive a solid grounding in basic sciences (mathematics, physics, chemistry) as well as engineering sciences, providing the tools and scientific methods to ensure a rigorous approach to engineering problems.

The analysis, design and maintenance of IT systems requires wide-ranging scientific knowledge in key areas of information engineering (electronics, automation, telecommunications), accompanied by thorough technological and methodological expertise in the main areas specific to computing.

The programme has a single core curriculum that provides students with basic engineering concepts and thorough knowledge of the main characteristics of information processing systems, for both hardware and software components. In particular, the courses cover the basic principles of computers and computer systems, problems encountered in the design and integration of hardware and software, and advanced aspects of operating systems, programming languages, techniques and methods of software engineering, and principles and technologies for modeling, designing and managing databases.
