Software and computing now influence almost every modern engineering sector. Aircraft, vehicles, energy systems, manufacturing facilities and business operations depend increasingly on software, automation, data and intelligent systems.

This pathway covers computer science, software engineering, artificial intelligence, machine learning, data science, cybersecurity, embedded software, digital twins, simulation and autonomous systems.

Students interested in aerospace or automotive industries do not always need a traditional engineering degree. Strong computer-science and software backgrounds can lead directly into simulation, flight software, autonomous systems, digital engineering, data platforms, cybersecurity and engineering-software roles.
