Design and Analysis of an Undergraduate Computational Engineering Degree at Federal University of Juiz de Fora

Abstract

The undergraduate program in Computational Engineering at Federal University of Juiz de Fora, Brazil, was created in 2008 as a joint initiative of two distinct departments in the University, Computer Science, located in the Exact Science Institute, and Applied and Computational Mechanics, located in the School of Engineering. First freshmen began in 2009 and graduated in 2014. This work presents the curriculum structure of this pioneering full bachelor’s degree in Computational Engineering in Brazil.
