Doutor em Filosofia em Engenharia de Computação (Ph.D.)

Program Overview

The Ph.D. in Computer Engineering prepares aspiring scholars and researchers to explore key areas within the computer engineering field, including computer architecture, integrated circuit design, photonic computing, high-performance computing, and network computing.

Students can expect to work closely with a faculty advisor in their chosen research area to create a curriculum plan and guidance for the doctoral dissertation. Students may also be expected to teach introductory-level courses to undergraduates, present conference papers, and work with faculty on research grant applications.

Faculty Advisor & Research Focus

We strongly recommended that prospective doctoral students determine a faculty member in the department with whom they would like to work and a research area of interest.

There are plenty of good engineering schools in the U.S., but how far can well take you when your goal is to engineer better?
