Computer Engineering Department

The Department of Computer Engineering was established at PSUT in 2002. The department has 8 tenure-track faculty members all holding Doctoral degrees from top universities around the world.

The faculty members are experts in their teaching areas and engaged in research activities.

The Department of Computer Engineering offers two Bachelor's programs:
