Words from Alumni    

I was trained to be logical and analytical in thinking and learnt a lot of computer knowledge (including both hardware and software) in the last few years through the program. The Computer Engineering program provides both theoretical and practical training to the students. These training prepare us to be a knowledgeable engineer. It not only teaches the theories, including computer architecture, operation system, etc, but also the practical ones, including programming, robot-making and other projects. It is a tough but valuable learning experience.

The program also encourages students to do research. In the final year, we have to work on a final year project. This let us know what we want to specialize in and keep abreast of the latest technologies. Through the final year project, I found out the significance of research. This led me to my master and doctoral studies.

There were lots of problem to be solved each day, including programming and paper working. I believe CSE department one of the toughest among others, but it is also very challenging. One can learn not only computer knowledge, but also other skills in this department. Team work and research based final year project provides all-rounded training. Professors and tutors are friendly and helpful. They encourage students to communicate and to share ideas within and out of the classroom. On the other hand, there are also extracurricular activities held by the CSE student society. C.S. Cup is one of my favorites, which includes competition on T.V. games, badminton and tug of war. In summary, the study life is filled with happiness in the department of CS&E.
