Hardware Engineering

Hardware engineering is a branch of engineering that focuses on the design, development, testing, and manufacturing of physical components and systems of computers and computer-related devices. It deals with the tangible parts of technology, from the smallest integrated circuits to complex systems like servers, smartphones, and embedded systems.  

Think of hardware engineers as the architects and builders of the physical world of computing. While software engineers deal with the instructions that make computers work, hardware engineers create the physical machinery that executes those instructions.

Hardware engineering is a foundational discipline that underpins the entire field of computing and electronics. It requires a strong understanding of physics, mathematics, electronics, and computer science. Hardware engineers play a crucial role in creating the innovative technologies that shape our modern world.
