Hi,


Greeting's for the day!!!

Computer Engineers are respnsible for desning, developing, implementing and testing computer-based hardware and software, including the components that are found inside computer equipment, as well as actual devices that contain the computers and the software that runs on those machines. They may also design network that connects computer systems, and work on integrating software programs with computer hardware.

Education Requirements:
To become Computer Engineer, you will typicaly require a bachelor of science degree in computer engineeing, computer science or electrical engineering.

Responsibilities or Required Technical Skills / Required Aptitude:
Since the Computer Engineering field is quite broad, the required technical skills listed in the job postings you may come across will vary, depending on whether the job is more hardware or software focused, and which industry the employer belongs to. Typically, you will need to have the followings:

1. An Understanding of the particular computer hardware architecture you will be working with
2. Experience desinging, coding and testing softwares.
3. Familiarity with Software Test Procedures or Scripts
