Best computer engineering programs in Nebraska?

I'm looking into computer engineering as a potential major and Nebraska came up as a possibility for college. Are there any standout universities in Nebraska known for their computer engineering programs?

a year ago

When it comes to strong computer engineering programs in Nebraska, two universities stand out.

First, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL) offers a reputable Computer Engineering program. The B.S. in Computer Engineering at UNL is a diverse program that prepares students for a broad range of hardware and software applications. In addition to encompassing the fundamentals of electrical engineering and computer science, the program offers students the chance to develop a more specialized understanding of areas like digital and microprocessor systems, computer networks, and software engineering. UNL's program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, which ensures the quality of its engineering education.

Secondly, University of Nebraska Omaha (UNO) also offers a comprehensive computer engineering program. It provides a strong foundation in computer science, computer engineering, and electrical engineering. The UNO computer engineering program is unique in that it maintains an emphasis on a systems viewpoint, meeting the degree requirements of both ABET accreditations in computer science and in computer engineering.

Both universities have strong ties to the tech industry in Nebraska, affording students opportunities for internships and co-ops that can provide real-world experience and potentially lead to full-time employment after graduation.

Remember, the most suitable program for you will also depend on other factors such as the school's size, campus culture, cost, location, etc., so it's recommended to tour the campuses and speak with admissions or department representatives if possible.
