About Computer Engineering Technology (CET)

Technology has become a part of our everyday lives. We use it for downloading music, playing games, getting information, communicating, banking, and more. Earn your bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering Technology from DeVry University, and you'll learn how to design and implement the software and hardware that makes these things possible. Upon graduation, you'll have the skills to create advanced electronics like iPods, cell phones, and defense-related equipment, and work in research, manufacturing, medical, communications, security, and consumer products markets.

At DeVry University, you have the option of taking all or some of your CET coursework online. Whether online or onsite, qualified practitioner faculty will teach your classes, and you'll have regular opportunities for collaboration and interaction with classmates.
