Typical pay: BLS, 2024 computer hardware engineers median $155,020
A Computer Engineering major sits at the boundary of electrical engineering and computer science, focusing on the design of computing hardware and the low-level software that drives it. A typical bachelor's degree builds on calculus, differential equations, and physics, then moves into digital logic design, circuit analysis, microprocessors and computer architecture, embedded systems, signals, and operating systems. Students work in labs with FPGAs, microcontrollers, and hardware description languages such as VHDL or Verilog, and most programs finish with a senior capstone design project.
Graduates design and test processors, memory, circuit boards, and embedded controllers, and write the firmware and device drivers that let hardware and software work together. They work across semiconductors, consumer electronics, telecommunications, aerospace, automotive, and embedded products. The closely related occupation of computer hardware engineers had a median wage of $155,020 per year in 2024, with projected employment growth of 7.3% from 2024 to 2034 (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics).
Computer engineering programs are credit-heavy and are commonly accredited by ABET. The coursework overlaps substantially with both electrical engineering and computer science, so graduates can pursue hardware, embedded, or software-leaning roles depending on their electives and concentration.
