Computer science is not only about having excellent computer skills – it also deals with contributing to the social development. How can we improve existing systems? What could be useful in the future?
With computer engineering skills you can create computer systems that people need, want or not yet know that they need.
More than just computers
IT is the most complex type of technology created by humans. In order to become an IT expert, you need to understand the entire spectrum ranging from basic mathematics and tiny technical details to human and societal needs. When learning all this, you can count on a lot of hard work.
There is no need to worry, though. NTNU educates more advanced computer engineers than all the remaining educational institutions in Norway combined. With the aid of skilful lecturers, cooperation in small groups and assistance from older students you will complete your degree in computer engineering.
A practical study
During the course of your study, you will take part in several projects, often conducted in groups. The aim is to provide you with a realistic glimpse of your future career and let you put theories into practice. In the course “Customer Driven Project” you will meet enterprises as employers with real problems that need to be solved. This part is unique for the computer engineering programme at NTNU.
This programme is meant for Scandinavian-speaking students. For further information, please see the Norwegian website http://www.ntnu.no/studier/midt/ .
