Computer Systems Engineering is an interdisciplinary field that deals with modeling, analysis, design, integration, optimization, and management of systems and processes. Integrating several aspects of electrical engineering and computer science to develop computer-based systems, computer systems engineers focus not only on the computer technology itself but more importantly on how computer systems are used and how they integrate into other systems and the larger scheme of our personal and professional needs.
Program mission
The University of Georgia Computer Systems Engineering undergraduate program seeks to prepare graduates for careers that bridge engineering and computer science to design technical solutions to a wide variety of multi-disciplinary problems. Graduates will possess the skills to work in teams in both contributor and leadership roles. They will be motivated to assume responsibility to serve society and behave ethically, engage in life-long learning and both broaden and deepen their expertise.
