Computer engineers require training in [[electronicelectrical engineering]], [[computerelectronic scienceengineering]], [[Computer Science]], hardware-software integration, [[software design]], and [[software engineering]]. It uses the techniques and principles of electrical engineering and computer science, and can encompass areas such as [[Artificial Intelligence (AI)|artificial intelligence (AI)]], [[robotics]], [[Computer network|computer networks]], [[computer architecture]] and [[Operating system|operating systems]]. Computer engineers are involved in many hardware and software aspects of [[computing]], from the design of individual [[microcontroller]]s, [[microprocessor]]s, [[personal computer]]s, and [[supercomputer]]s, to [[circuit design]]. This field of engineering not only focuses on how computer systems themselves work, but also on how to integrate them into the larger picture.<ref>{{Cite web
