my major as of now is computer engineering. i have taken calculus 1 and currently enrolled in calculus 2. i wanted to know how much of calculus will be used on the job later on because I am struggling in math.
DefaultName said:In my previous post, I didnt watn to make it seem like computer engineers use no math, which is untrue. I meant for that post to be geared towards digital systems design.
As a computer engineering student, you'll have to take courses that cover Signals and Systems or whatever your school may call it... it's VERY heavy in math... Complex #s, integration (summations as well), derivatives, etc. It's probably going to be the most math intensive class youll have to take.
You are likely to take Discrete Math as well, I know I don't since I'm an EE.
Computer engineering is a field of study that combines principles of computer science and electrical engineering to design and develop computer systems and hardware. It involves creating and implementing new technologies and solutions for various computer-related problems.
Some essential skills for a career in computer engineering include strong problem-solving abilities, critical thinking skills, attention to detail, and proficiency in programming languages such as C++, Java, and Python. Additionally, a solid understanding of mathematics and physics is necessary for this field.
Computer engineering offers a wide range of job opportunities, including software development, hardware design, network engineering, systems analysis, and technical support. It also provides opportunities for research and development in various industries such as healthcare, finance, and entertainment.
While a degree in computer engineering is not always a requirement for a career in this field, it is highly recommended. Employers often prefer candidates with a degree in computer engineering or a related field, as it demonstrates a strong foundation of knowledge and skills. Additionally, a degree can provide access to internships, networking opportunities, and specialized courses.
The future prospects for a career in computer engineering are very promising. As technology continues to advance, the need for skilled computer engineers will only increase. Additionally, the rapid growth of industries such as artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and virtual reality presents even more opportunities for those in this field.
