Why BEng Information Engineering?

Information engineering is an interdisciplinary subject that brings together knowledge and techniques from computer science, electrical engineering, and communication theory to design and develop systems that can efficiently and effectively process, transmit, and store information. Nowadays, the demand for professionals with expertise in information engineering is higher than ever. By studying information engineering, you can develop the knowledge and skills required to design and develop systems that can handle the massive amounts of data generated by our increasingly connected world.

Information engineering involves several areas: networking, communications, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence (AI), multimedia, and algorithms and optimization.

Networking and communications deal with the design and optimization of communication systems. Understanding the principles behind networking and communications is essential for developing systems that can effectively handle large amount of data.

Cybersecurity deals with securing and protecting information systems from unauthorized access. With the increasing threat of cyber attacks, cybersecurity has become a critical area of concern for organizations and governments around the world.

AI is a rapidly evolving field that relies heavily on information engineering. AI algorithms are designed to process vast amounts of data and extract meaningful insights. Learning how to design and implement these algorithms requires a strong foundation in information engineering principles, including data structures, algorithms, and multimedia techniques. Multimedia involves analyzing and manipulating signals, such as sound or images, to extract useful information. This information can be used in a variety of applications, such as speech recognition, audio and video processing, robotics, and computer games.

In the aforementioned areas, many problems can be formulated optimization problems. Hence we need to design and implement cost-effective steps (algorithms) to solve the problems. 

Career opportunities: Information engineering is a rapidly growing field, and there is a high demand for professionals with expertise in this area. Studying information engineering can open up a range of career opportunities in areas such as software engineering, data analysis, networking and telecommunication,  cybersecurity, multimedia, and AI.
