In the Intelligent Systems Engineering (ISE) program, students learn about engineering systems that integrate physical processes, computation, and artificial intelligence. Students will also learn how the networked, smart physical entities are used to manage electric grids and other critical infrastructures, home utilities and appliances, robots, autonomous vehicles, environmental sensor networks, traffic control, smart toys and Internet of Things (IoT) systems. In a time where everyday objects around us are becoming smart, future ISE engineers have tremendous career prospects in a broad range of application domains.

Unlike traditional engineering programs that specialize in one engineering discipline, CDM’s ISE program is interdisciplinary, combining the core components of computer science, computer engineering, and generalist engineering programs. This means that students in the program experience the complete lifecycle of developing a modern engineering system and master mechanical design, fabrication, electronic circuits, software development, networking, and cyber-security.

For international students: this is a STEM-designated program, which can qualify you to extend your post-graduation stay in the United States.

Research Labs
CDM is home to several specialized research labs, including the Robotic Assisted Locomotion (RAL) Lab. The goal of the RAL Lab is to develop robot devices to help people with limited mobility regain their freedom in movement. Lab members are currently studying locomotion in natural and artificial systems with legs to better understand the physical phenomenon involved in the coordinated movement of the joints transporting our bodies. The lab consists of a collegial group of students and professionals of different levels helping in embedded systems, mechanical design, and user testing of the robots. Students interested in joining the lab can email Umer Huzaifa.
