Can I change my major from computer science to computer engineering?

If you plan ahead, choose your college wisely, and do well in core subjects, changing your major to computer science or computer engineering is very possible!

How hard is it to major in computer engineering?

Computer engineering is harder than computer science but not by much. A computer engineering degree is more difficult than a computer science one because you have to take more math courses, additional electrical engineering classes, and several practical lab sessions.

Should I go for Computer Engineering or computer science engineering?

If you want to go deep into computers (I.e. Microprocessors, digital logic, etc), stay with computer engineering. I personally really enjoyed web development and if I could go back I would have done CS so that I could have learned more of the fundamentals in school, rather than in my personal time after college.

Can You major in Computer Engineering with an electrical engineering minor?

And ideally, computer engineering is a major which brings those two together. But at my school, it feels more like the Computer Engineering course is electrical engineering sprinkled with a few CS courses. I briefly entertained of being a CS major with an Electrical Engineering minor, but that isn’t possible at my school.

Should I switch from electrical engineering to Computer Engineering?

If you think software is better, I would switch to CS so you get better fundamentals and more practical knowledge on how to write software. If you still want to keep part of electrical, try doing embedded systems. If you want to go deep into computers (I.e. Microprocessors, digital logic, etc), stay with computer engineering.

Is a CE degree worth it for a software engineer?

I switched from EE to CE after my freshman year and I just graduated a few months ago and I now work as a software engineer. As long as you have the skills and tailor your resume more towards software (for projects and stuff) having a CE degree is not gonna be a negative.
