How many years does it take to become a computer systems engineer?

Answer 1

For a professional degree in this field, the minimum entry educational requirement is a bachelor's degree which takes approximately four years to complete as a full time student, provided the degree is taken as prescribed by the college or university.

Answer 2

A bachelor's degree in most areas can require between 120 to 128 college credits particular to a specific program of study. This would be based on a college or university that operates on a regular two semester academic year which is the most common. For institutions that operate on a tri-semester or quarter-semester it would be quite different. That being said, the Bachelor's degree - in most cases - is designed as a four year program of study, provided the student is full-time and follows their chosen program of study as prescribed by the college or university, and also provided the individual does not require prerequisite or developmental coursework as a result of basic skills testing. The minimum credit load for a full-time student is no less than 12 credits per semester. However, to complete the degree within the four years, a credit load of approximately 15 to 18 credits is recommended. For individuals who work or who have other responsibilities that would prohibit them from attending full-time, completion of the degree may take twice as long. Still, some of this time can be cut down by attending summer sessions and/or interim sessions. In addition, the bachelors and associate degrees are referred to as undergraduate degrees while the masters and doctorate degrees referred to as graduate degrees.

Answer 3

Typically, it will take approximately four years, with the exception of architectural engineering which is a five year program of study. There are a number of specific fields within engineering, each with requirements of there own. Some would include:

* Chemical engineering * Mechanical engineering * Electrical engineering * Computer science engineering * Engineering management * Architectural engineering

Answer 4

Usually a 2-yr associates degree is the minimum. There are several 4-yr programs for a BS in METech as well. ME Tech is NOT, however, the same as a full Mechanical Engineering degree.

Answer 5

4 Years
