Computer engineering combines electrical engineering and computer science to design and build computer systems. At Academic City University College, this degree sits within the School of Engineering. Entry is less competitive than at some other Ghanaian universities, so your grades may be enough.

What computer engineering programmes cover

Computer engineering sits at the intersection of electrical engineering and computer science. Programmes of this kind typically cover digital logic, microprocessor design, computer architecture, operating systems, embedded systems, and networking, alongside programming and software engineering. You will learn to design hardware and software that work together, and develop problem-solving skills that are useful across many industries. Most graduates go on to work as hardware engineers, software developers, systems designers, or network engineers, and the field also feeds into robotics, telecommunications, and cybersecurity.
