Bachelor in Intelligent Systems Engineering
In DePaul’s Intelligent Systems Engineering program, you’ll learn about engineering systems that integrate physical processes, computation and control. You’ll gain an understanding of how cyber-physical systems are used to manage electric grids and other infrastructures, home utilities and appliances, robots, autonomous vehicles, environmental sensor networks, traffic control, smart toys and Internet of Things (IoT) systems.
As you work toward your systems engineering degree, you’ll learn how to:
Analyze a simple physical process and develop a mathematical model that describes it
Develop a feedback control system that controls a simple physical process
Solve a computational problem by selecting appropriate data structures and algorithms
Select the hardware (sensors, actuators, controllers, etc.) for an Intelligent System
Develop the embedded system software that manages Intelligent System hardware
Assess and improve the reliability and security of a simple Intelligent System
Integrate feedback control, algorithms, and hardware to implement a Intelligent System
The Intelligent Systems Engineering program takes on a multi-disciplinary approach – you’ll gain a broad and deep foundation in computer science and software development.
The Jarvis College of Computing and Digital Media (CDM) is located in downtown Chicago, in the heart of the city’s technology and business districts. With your DePaul cyber engineering degree, you’ll have many opportunities to work professionally with leading companies in information systems. Many CDM faculty members are working professionals, allowing you to learn first-hand from leaders in the industry.
For international students: this program is a STEM-designated program, which can qualify you to extend your post-graduation stay in the United States.
