Advanced College Diploma - Computer Engineering Technology (1060) (Optional Co-op)

Program Description

Available intakes: January & September

Graduates from Computer Engineering Technology programs work with electronic, computer and communications equipment and systems. They are technical experts and problem solvers. Many Conestoga graduates report that they enjoy the creative aspects of the job and seeing projects come to life. This program's first year is the same as the Electronics/Communications Technician/Technology programs. At the end of first year, students may switch programs if they desire.

Graduates of the Computer Engineering Technology program are able to design, build, test and repair a computer-based system or any part of one. Their very strong electronics knowledge and skills enable them to take on many roles in industry. Their strength in hardware, mathematics and theory equips them to interface with the physical world. Because of the power of embedded processor chips, they are used to simplify (and make less expensive) most non-trivial equipment and systems.
