Reform Movement: Demolishing Barriers Between Computer Science and Computer Engineering in Purdue University

Introduction
Synergy Between Computer Engineering and Computer Science
Engineering is the ‘practice of safe and economic application of scientific laws’. Science is a ‘systematic observation of natural events in order to formulate laws.’ The field of engineering became a separate discipline from science in the nineteenth century.

Therefore, computer science is more aligned to engineering than Continue reading...
