Northwestern’s Computer Engineering BS marries digital-logic design with embedded-systems programming, enabling students to architect everything from neuromorphic chips to autonomous-drone flight controllers. Labs move quickly from FPGA prototypes to custom ASIC layouts, while electives in edge AI, cybersecurity, and quantum hardware open frontier research avenues. Industry-sponsored design studios pair undergraduates with med-tech, aero-space, and gaming partners, giving them silicon-to-software fluency prized in cutting-edge R&D teams.
