Graduates seek professions in research, development, design, production, quality assurance, consulting, sales and management. Power engineering graduates are in demand to design distribution systems, better power control, and new means of producing energy to meet the needs of society. Communications, satellites, telephones, entertainment systems, computer networking, fiber optics and signal processing are other areas in need of EE s. Robotics, manufacturing, control system hardware, control system software. Computer engineering, as a discipline in itself is still relatively young in the engineering world.
Computer engineers focus on hardware and software.
They can be computer architects, chip architects, VLSI layout engineers, real time system design engineers, design engineers, systems engineers, applications engineers, networking engineers, control engineers, marketing engineers, data communications engineers, project engineers, research engineers, consulting engineers, test engineers, production engineers, telecommunications engineers, and solid state engineers. Many computer engineers are consultants specializing in hardware and software solutions in the Sun and PC environments.
