Computer Science: Embedded Systems Concentration (CS: Embedded)
From SAUwiki
The computer science concentration curriculum follows the guideline for computer science degrees developed by the ACM and IEEE, Curriculum 2001. Our computer science students test considerably above average in the ETS Major Field Exam, and are well-prepared for a computing career or to attend graduate school.
The embedded systems concentration is designed to prepare students for employment in the exciting field of embedded systems. In addition, it has a strong engineering component for students who wish to continue to graduate school.
The embedded system concentration is designed to prepare you for a wide range of computer hardware and software careers. Embedded systems specialists design the hardware and/or software for handheld computers, microprocessors, digital signal processors, and specialized computers that are embedded into most of today's electronics. These computing professionals are distinguished by their flexibility in working with many different technologies and domains, their technical and experimental experience, and their ability to bridge the gap between hardware and software designers. In many ways, this degree is a fusion of computer science and computer engineering. Upon completion of this curriculum, students have the skills necessary to immediately enter the workforce. They can also pursue a graduate degree in computer science, computer engineering, or software engineering (a minimal number of additional perquisites courses may be needed).
IT is ABET accredited.
