Career Possibilities
TSU computer engineers work in jobs from improving diesel-engine
control (lower emissions, higher power), to defense projects (computers
that provide information about a battlefield or orders). The engine
projects are ultimately used by Cummins or International Truck—some
of our students work directly for these big manufacturers, and
some work for software consultants that program for these and
other customers. Some of our graduates go on to graduate school
and then could work on their own research as professors, or on
team projects at defense or civilian research centers.
