Computer Systems Engineering embodies the science and technology of design, construction, implementation, and maintenance of software and hardware components of modern computing systems and computer-controlled equipment.

Computing devices have become smaller and their increased reliability as system building blocks has created an environment in which computers have replaced the more conventional electronic devices. This can be seen in the proliferation of mobile telephones, personal digital assistants, location-aware devices, digital cameras, and similar products. Computer Systems Engineering also reveals itself in the myriad of applications involving embedded systems, namely those computing systems that appear in applications such as vehicles, large-scale electronic devices, and major appliances.

The Computer Systems Engineering programme at UWI (Mona) brings together components from the sub-disciplines of Computer Science, Electrical Engineering and Software Engineering. These are delivered in a style that emphasises both theory and practical work. We incorporate an internship, projects, and business courses to produce a graduate that is ready for the job market or to start a business.
