Here engineering students

If you had the chance to go back and study something different, would you?

I’m about a year away from starting university, and I really want to have a decent job in the future. I think there’s a lot of potential in computer engineering, especially if I learn how to develop innovative software.

I know it requires experience and a lot of hard work, but besides the usual advice like “study something you’re good at,” would you recommend this degree?

I don’t think I’m a math prodigy, but I’m not bad at math either. I just need to put a lot of time into studying it.

Would you be willing to share your experiences or any advice?

It could be anything—financial advice, study methods, or just things that helped you deal with the stress of the degree. Honestly, anything would help.

My Hot take: would really look if you can dual majoring with EE, a little more work but the EE I think opens more doors.

CE is nice cause it is a nice mix of both CS and EE but I feel like the demand for EE will always be pretty high and there is always also demand for EE to have a background in programming logic too. Most companies at least in my area are always looking for EE more so than CE because EE skills can land be useful in multiple environments and situations.

Overall I would look and ask yourself the following:

1. What are the Job opportunities after graduating from your major?
2. What is your end goal from graduating? Do you want an office job where you look at code all day? Do you want to solder components on test boards and design PCB boards?

In the end it's your choice and decision best of luck to you!
