The event will take place at the HBKU Student Centre at 6.30pm tomorrow and will offer attendees the opportunity to meet with faculty members from HBKU's College of Science and Engineering. Representatives from HBKU's Student Recruitment Department will also be on site to discuss the admissions process and the necessary tests for students.
The Computer Engineering programme's dynamic approach will draw on the expert knowledge of its partner institutions alongside its own faculty. The programme covers both hardware and software, and students are able to take courses provided by Texas A&M University at Qatar and Carnegie Mellon University in Qatar, in addition to a comprehensive range of course from HBKU.
Computer engineering graduates are highly in demand. For instance, the role of a computer systems analyst, which a computer engineering graduate is qualified to undertake, is currently ranked in the top five most sought after job for graduates.
Dr Amine Bermak, professor at the College of Science and Engineering at HBKU, noted: "In today's world, a computer engineer is responsible for developing, designing, testing and evaluating the software and hardware not only for computers, but also for smart portable computing and communication devices and embedded systems.
