Computer Engineering and Electrical Engineering have similar course loads.

That's why many schools combine them into one major.

Truth be told, I'm quite surprised that there's still solo EE and CompEng majors out there in this day and age

I'm doing the same thing too. I chose to double major in those fields because of the similarity and you would have to take around 5-7 more classes in order to attain both degrees.

4 year Engineering programs are being phased out (at least in the US), in favor of certification and 2 year programs. Engineering is more of a trade then anything.

I'm not offended. In America alot of jobs are actually becoming certifications or 2 year programs. Especially since alot of people are dumbasses, and think 4 years of college is hard.

Its already happened ALOT in the medical field. They are starting to do it in engineering as well. Engineering is really is more of a trade, if anything (at least the way it is done in the US).

Well, they cut-out all the Core-Classes and electives. That is about 2-years right there.
They also compress some courses.

I am using the basic defintion of trade, a "traded profession", a "blue collar job", a "labor job". Like a plumber, a nurse, or electrician.

Most of the time it's just uninspired "THEY LIKE IT IN THE BUTT CUZ THEY'RE GAY ENGINEERS", it was tiring, then funny, then like any meme, it got tiring again.
I'm an EE, so maybe I'm just butthurt (get it?), but only think it's funny on very rare occasions.

From what I've heard CE works more on embedded systems. It's sort of like EE and CS combined, but during your last year or so you may get to specialize a bit in a field of your choosing.

>> No.1263908

CE here.

CE is basically a merger of CS and EE. At my school, you choose whether you want to specialize in hw or sw. I chose sw so I'm more leaning to CS than EE.

Basically I would say go with CE if you are more interested in hw only in terms of computer components. Personally, I don't give a fuck about power systems or whatever other shit EEs deal with.
