Computer Engineering Curriculum (2024)
The Zhejiang University/University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Institute (ZJU-UIUC Institute) offers a joint dual-degree engineering program. Upon successful completion of the program, and after meeting the graduation requirements of both universities, students will obtain bachelor’s degrees separately from Zhejiang University (ZJU) and University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC).
1.Overview
Computer engineering focuses on the development of vital computing technologies, ranging from chips to computers to networks to programming tools to key algorithms for building exciting applications. Fundamentally, computer engineering addresses the problem of building scalable, trustworthy computing systems, and the faculty's interests span a broad spectrum of issues pertinent to this theme. Computer engineering has taken the lead in revolutionizing many science and engineering disciplines with parallel computing, from chips to clouds to planet-scale critical infrastructures, and has defined new standards of security, privacy, and dependability for systems ranging from small circuits to the electric power grids of many nations. Students need a broad and sound set of mathematical and computing skills and are well-served by a flexible curriculum that enables them to pursue topics of interest among the many sub-disciplines in computing.
The Computer Engineering program core curriculum focuses on fundamental computer engineering knowledge: circuits, systems, electromagnetics, computer systems, electronics for information processing and communication, and computer science. The rich set of ECE elective courses permits students to concentrate on any sub-discipline of computer engineering, including hardware systems; cyber physical systems; foundations and theory; software and languages; algorithms and mathematical tools; trust, reliability, security; networking, mobile and distributed computing; big data analytics and systems; artificial intelligence, robotics, cybernetics.
During their junior and senior years students are encouraged to take courses and involve themselves in research projects in cross-disciplinary areas with Civil and Environmental Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and others.
2. Graduation Requirement
1）Grade Point Average Requirement
A student must maintain a minimum GPA of 2.0 (A=4.0) to remain in good standing and graduate.
2）Junior Eligibility Requirement
To be eligible to enroll in the ECE courses listed in the third year of the curriculum, a student must have completed the mathematics, physics, computer science, and electrical and computer engineering courses listed in the first two years with a combined GPA of 2.25.
3）Curriculum Requirement
The curriculum leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering at UIUC requires 128 hours and is organized into required courses and elective courses.

*Students take ECE 445 to satisfy advance composition and technical elective requirement, and credits can be given for both.
For UIUC degree, in addition to the specific course and grade point average requirements listed above, each candidate for a bachelor’s degree from UIUC must meet the following requirements:
-
Residency Requirement: Earn a minimum 60 semester hours of UIUC credit, of which at least 21 hours must be 300 or 400 level UIUC credit courses.
-
Transfer Requirement: Have a satisfactory English Proficiency Test score on TOEFL, IELTS or others approved by UIUC, and maintain a good standing on academic studies that all term GPAs, overall GPA on UIUC courses are suggested to be above 2.5, and get admission through transfer applications during junior year, changing status from non-degree student to degree student.
For ZJU degree, in addition to the 128-hour requirement listed above, the curriculum leading to the degree of Bachelor of Engineering from ZJU requires students to complete additional ZJU-required liberal education courses for domestic students and additional five courses in Chinese language and society study for international students. Please refer to section 5 for details.
