When we talk about developing computer applications, less people know that in the background that it's the hardware that plays a critical part of that development. Without innovations in the hardware itself, computers can't run new, processing-intensive software. Hardware consists of the central processing unit required to power the operating system. Computers have a power supply and the hard drive for storage. It needs random access memory or RAM to ensure smooth operation. As computers get faster and more efficient, hardware is the reason those software upgrades can happen. Whether it's the newest touchpad on your laptop computer or the memory module in a desktop computer, the physical architecture of a personal computer or GPU affects its capabilities. The physical parts of computer science must move with software development, or we'll out-develop our capabilities.

For every software developer out there creating new programs, a hardware engineer is building physical systems capable of handling the loads modern applications need. Hardware architecture is the representation of an engineered (or to be engineered) electronic or electromechanical hardware system, and the process and discipline for effectively implementing the design(s) for such a system. Computer architecture is a set of rules and methods that describe the functionality, organization, and implementation of computer systems. The architecture of a system refers to its structure in terms of separately specified components of that system and their interrelationships.

 

The Computer Hardware Engineer Career Path program is specially designed to bridge the gap between electronics/hardware engineering and computer science/software engineering. The course covers most aspects of software while focusing on the advanced hardware design based on FPGA and system design based on microcontroller. This program aims to provide you with the knowledge and skills necessary to tackle challenges involved in the development of future technologies such as IoT, smart cities, autonomous car and green technologies. Learn how to troubleshoot and solve common computer hardware problems. Discover what is inside a computer, how it works and how to upgrade computer components.

Build a career around the engineering required for the next level of computer processing with courses and certifications designed to give you the fundamental knowledge you need to get started. The courses included in the Computer Hardware Engineer Career Path program include most aspects of software while focusing on the advanced hardware design based on FPGA and system design based on microcontroller. The learners of this program should be able to solve both electronics and software-related problems in areas such as electronic engineering, embedded systems, computer architecture and security, programming, mobile app development, machine learning, FPGA based design and system on chip design.
