What is computer engineering?

   Computer engineering (CE) students study the design of digital hardware and software systems including communications systems, computers and devices that contain computers. For them, programming is focused on digital devices and their interfaces with users and other devices.

  Computer hardware engineers research, design, develop, test, and oversee the installation of computer hardware and supervise its manufacture and installation. Hardware refers to computer chips, circuit boards, computer systems, and related equipment such as keyboards, modems, and printers.

  Computer engineering majors are offered by a fairly large number of universities, almost always within engineering. This major requires significant study of mathematics. The work of computer hardware engineers is very similar to that of electronics engineers, but, unlike electronics engineers, computer hardware engineers work exclusively with computers and computer-related equipment. The rapid advances in computer technology are largely a result of the research, development, and design efforts of computer hardware engineers.
What is computer science?

Computer science develops students' computational and critical thinking skills and shows them how to create new technologies. Foundational computer science courses in K-12 teach the fundamental concepts of computing. The AP course under development focuses around seven big ideas at the core of computer science.

How us Computer Science Used in Various Careers?

The fundamental knowledge is needed to prepare students for the 21st century, regardless of their ultimate field of study or occupation. 70 percent of computing are outside of the marination technology industry: 9 percent are in information services, 12 percent are in financial services, 36 percent are in professional and business services, 7 percent are in government and public education services, and 12 percent are in manufacturing. The College Board states studying AP Computer Science can open the pathway to 130 career areas and 48 college majors.

Student Summer Discussion 


I talked to Angel and he said that he went on bike trips with his friends during the summer and he spent it with friends and family. In addition, he went to a water park with his friends and he had fun he was there for a good couple of hours enjoying himself. Another friend I spoke to was Leo he said that he spent it with family and watching the World Cup games in the morning. He also mentioned that he went shopping for back to school.

My Summer Vacation

My Summer vacation, what i did over the summer was fun and boring at some times my first week I got before summer school i spent it with my family and I went to workout in the days had to do chores here and there but I had no option. Summer school started and well I didn't want to go but i had too or else i won't get the credits nor graduate high school I would wake up every morning Monday-Friday at 7:30 am to shower and change school started at 8:30 am it was a whole month of summer school I had to attend but overall I finished all work and successfully passed the classes I needed to get my credits. In the middle of summer school I went on a 3 day vacation to a place called Laughlin, NV it was hot the temperature would reach 105-112 degrees in the day in the night it would be around the ninety's. In the first day of Laughlin we went to go buy food and snacks because we were heading to the river to get wet and have fun! The river we headed to was the Colorado River various of people went there we found a place to put the stuff down and set up everything. After the river we went to check in the hotel and we did we went to the hotel room we had a few hours till the firework show  I went to go get a workout in for a hour or so I came back and I showered, changed, and headed out with my family to see the show. When the firework show ended we went to go see the movie that came out that day it was called "The First Purge" me and my cousins went to go see it my thoughts on the movie, well it was a good movie and in parts a bit funny but overall it was a good movie. The next day we rented Jet ski's it was my first time on a jet ski and it was a fun experience. Friday morning we were packing up and we headed back home but overall my summer was well spent with my family.
