1999-2000 General Catalog
University of California, Riverside
COMPUTER ENGINEERING
Advising Office, A159 Bourns Hall
(909) 787-5651 http://www.engr.ucr.edu MAJOR The Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Engineering is offered by the Departments of Computer Science and Engineering and of Electrical Engineering. The major encompasses a broad range of topics from both computer science and electrical engineering, including hardware and software, the design of computer systems, and their application. Requirements include a core of required topics, primarily from the Departments of Computer Science and Engineering, and of Electrical Engineering, and also offer a wide spectrum of elective courses permitting specialization in one or two of the sub-disciplines of computer engineering. The major supports the growing industrial need for individuals trained in this particular range of topics but also prepares students for graduate study in Computer Engineering or related fields. During their freshman year, all engineering students follow a common curriculum of mathematics and sciences. By the beginning of the sophomore year, students begin more specific course work toward their selected major. Students enrolled in community college pre-engineering programs are expected to complete the equivalent of the first two years of UCR's course work for engineering majors and to demonstrate strength in calculus, chemistry, and physics. The Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) does not meet transfer requirements for Engineering. The Marlan and Rosemary Bourns College of Engineering provides special advisory services to aid community college transfer students in formulating their program and in remedying any deficiencies in required course work. UNIVERSITY REQUIREMENTS General University requirements are Universitywide requirements that all undergraduates must satisfy. See the Undergraduate Studies section for a complete listing. COLLEGE REQUIREMENTS Students must fulfill all breadth requirements of The Bourns College of Engineering. See Degree Requirements under The Marlan and Rosemary Bourns College of Engineering in the Undergraduate Studies section of this catalog. To fulfill the Humanities and the Social Sciences breadth requirements, students enrolled in The Bourns College of Engineering must meet both University criteria and Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) criteria for breadth and depth in their selection of courses. The ABET criteria are implemented in the following manner: 1. At least two of the Humanities and/or Social Science courses must be upper-division. 2. At least two courses must be from the same subject area (for example, two courses in History), with at least one of the two being an upper-division course. 3. Courses must be selected from an approved list available in The College Office of Student Affairs. The Computer Engineering major uses the following major requirements to satisfy The College's Natural Science and Mathematics breadth requirement. 1. MATH 009A 2. PHYS 040A, PHYS 040B, PHYS 040C MAJOR REQUIREMENTS Major requirements for the Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering are as follows: Lower-division requirements (67 units):
Upper-division requirements (83 units minimum)
Students may petition for exceptions to the above degree requirements. Exceptions to Computer Science course requirements must be approved by the Computer Science and Engineering undergraduate advisor or chair, and exceptions to Electrical Engineering course requirements must be approved by the Electrical Engineering undergraduate advisor or chair. Exceptions to other requirements require the approval of the undergraduate advisors or chairs of both departments. Sample Program
