COMPUTERENGINEERING MSandPhDProgram

INTRODUCTION During last two decades, the world of a common man has drastically changed with the extensive use of computers in daily life. In mid 80s, it was realized that computer engineering should be distinguished from the basic computer sciences and electrical engineering, due to its growing independent scope and the potential of its vast emerging applications. It is not surprising that Computer Engineeringisoneofthefastestexpandingfieldsofengineering. In the start of the last decade, upon the converging behavior of communications technologies to computer networks, a new paradigm of ICT was formed. Soon, withthepassageoftimeduetotheextensiveuseofdataprocessing,someparts of communications engineering, i.e. the applications, data transmission and reception, coding and security encryption were also made as parts of the computer engineering. This way, both telecommunications and computer networks became subdomains of computer engineering. Recently, 4th generation cellular systems are totally being studied in computer engineering domain.Nevertheless,signalprocessinginthesesystemsisstillthoughttobethe integralpartofelectricalandelectronicstechnologies.
