Computer Engineering - M.S.
Computer engineers apply engineering concepts to creatively design, develop and implement hardware and software systems.
Why Choose Computer Engineering?
Today, computer engineers make up one of the highest-paying and most in-demand career fields in the world.
According to The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the number of jobs for software developers, quality assurance analysts and testers is set to increase 22% by 2030. In New York City, the growth is clear – jobs are continuing to increase in telecommunications, computing devices, cloud computing and medicine.
The College’s 30-credit computer engineering program is designed for students looking to join this growing industry.

Faculty & Research
Faculty in the computer engineering graduate program work side-by-side with individual students on research projects. They’ll also help with job placement. The Electrical & Computer Engineering department employs ten full-time faculty, among them Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Fellow George Giakos, and three IEEE Senior Members; Mahmoud Amin, Ahmed Hussein and Yi Wang. Find our full list of faculty here.
Graduate students can apply for a National Science Foundation (NSF) Graduate Research Fellowship, which recognizes and supports outstanding graduate students in NSF-supported science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) disciplines. The fellowship includes a stipend to support international research and professional development. Additional research opportunities exist through industrial sponsorships and internships.
