Computer Engineering?
|
| I'm in it, but I keep wondering if its to broad. We are learning EE and CS courses but from what I can see, the job market is one where its either software or hardware. Can someone tell me of a job where both programming (say like C) and hardware (say like pspice design) are used at the same time. Cause I'm thinkin it might be easier to switch to more specialized field/major. |

I think Computer Engineering already has them, it's part of ComSci, right? :| hm...  |

Re: Computer Engineering?

| nah, it has both EE and compsci in them. Thus, I'm asking if its too broad or not and a job that takes advantage of both hardware and software. |

Maybe you should ask a professor in the field. I don't know much about engineering, being a cs guy, but I would say its definitely not too broad of a field. CE concentrates on bridging the gap between hardware and software. If that were an easy task, then they wouldn't hire them anywhere :P I stole a list of jobs from wikipedia: Usual tasks involving computer engineers include writing software and firmware for embedded micro controllers, designing VLSI chips, designing analog sensors, designing mixed signal circuit boards, and designing operating systems. Computer engineers are also suited for robotics research, which relies heavily on using digital systems to control and monitor electrical systems like motors, communications, and sensors. That's just a sample, you can do anything that integrates computer systems into other devices with CE.
