The academic program that leads to the degree in Computer Systems Engineering guides, nurtures, and prepares students to become graduates who, within five years after graduation, achieve the following objectives:

PEO # 1: Career

Work as professionals in diverse organizations or as entrepreneurs, able to participate in innovation, research, and development on information technologies.

PEO #2: Practice

Practice Computer Systems Engineering in the design and implementation of software and applications, demonstrating technical expertise and collaborating and communicating effectively.

PEO #3: Continuous Learning

Continually expand their skill-set and knowledge, through independent study or high-level training such as professional certifications or graduate degrees or web seminars.

PEO #4: Leadership & Professional Engagement

Achieve and maintain positions of influence in the community of Computer Systems Engineering professionals, showing organizational engagement, social responsibility, and ethics.

As a graduate from the Bachelor of Computer Systems Engineering you will be able to analyze, evaluate, innovate, and implement computer systems, using database concepts and methodologies, software engineering, and artificial intelligence. You will consider also technical, ethical, and social factors to propose technological alternatives to develop software, and use computer tools to design complex systems that answer the challenges of globalization.

Once you have finished your study program, you will have a bachelor´s degree in addition to a licenciatura degree. Therefore, your studies will be recognized worldwide.

In addition to enhancing your entry skills, at the Licenciatura in Computer Systems Engineering we propose to:

• Teach you to analyze, design, develop, and evaluate computer systems that answer to specific purposes: administrative applications, entertainment, and industry.
• Guide you for effective interaction with professionals of other areas, creating multidisciplinary and multicultural groups.
• Help you understand the impact that computing solutions may have on the social, economic, and environmental context of a globalized world.
• Teach you skills to identify areas of opportunity in software companies, and be a leader in developing computer innovations.
• Make you aware of the importance of continued self-led learning in your professional development.

• Interested in computer equipment and systems.
• Elemental knowledge of different computer technologies and basic software.
• Willing to work for the greater good and be successful.
• Determined to achieve goals through learning.

Computer Systems Engineering graduates will have developed the following skills:

1. An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science and mathematics.
2. An ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.
3. An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences (oral & written).
4. An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.
5. An ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks and meet objectives.
6. An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
7. An ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
