What Do Engineers Do?



There's a Job in Engineering For You!

Love video games? Consider computer science, computer engineering, software engineering, or gaming technology and create the next big video game craze.


In on the latest gadgets and technology? Computer engineering might be your thing.

Computer engineers make a difference in the world by...

  • Developing distance learning programs for rural communities.
  • Creating software to detect brain tumors.
  • Designing a paper-thin laptop.
  • Creating a computer model of how the human brain learns and processes information.

Computer engineers are vitally important in almost everything that we do. Computer engineers develop cutting-edge video software, come up with a better phone to text friends, or invent a new hand-held device. In the medical field, computer engineers create programs that track patient records, control X-ray and MRI machines, and offer surgeons visual maps of the operations they are performing. Opportunities abound as a computer engineer, from medicine to national security, from education to entertainment.
