NOTE: On the IEEE Web pages Computer Engineering is is defined with a hardware emphasis and is consequently found under Electrical Engineering. At CWRU Computer Engineering includes both software and hardware aspects. However, at other schools Computer Science and Computer Engineering may be found in different programs depending upon the school's organization. Software engineering is harder to place and might be found as part of computer science or computer engineering or even as a separate program depending upon the school.
