Computer Engineering is a discipline that deals with:
- Designing of PCs, workstations, and supercomputers, computerization of products like cars, planes, appliances, electronics, phones, communication networks, and developing software and firmware for embedded microcontrollers, designing VLSI chips, designing analog sensors, designing mixed signal circuit boards, and designing operating systems is the core job of the engineers in this stream..
- Computer engineers also work to carry out research on robotics, which relies heavily on using digital systems to control and monitor electrical systems like motors, communications, sensors and. many other products
Eligibility :
The subjects that need to be taken after class 10th to pursue computer engineering as a career option are:
