The Computer Engineering Program (CompEng) is a special program offered by the conjunction of the Computer Science Department and the Electrical Engineering Department. The program is a part of SEAS, and thus open only to engineers. Both undergraduate and graduate level degrees are offered.

While having much in common with computer science as an academic pursuit, computer engineering specifically focuses on hardware: the creation, manipulation, and improvement thereof. Students in the program also learn how to program their own software to make use of the hardware they have designed and created.
