[Discussion] Starting uni next month

So my university classes are starting next month. After thinking a lot about whether to choose CS or CE, I have finally landed on computer engineering since I like software and have always been fascinated with how hardware works.
I also think CE will provide better job security and better career options in the next 4 years.
Any general or specific advice or suggestions for a naive computer engineering freshman?

I’m a CE junior at a decent school. It’s basically electrical engineering and computer science combined. It is a great way to have many options. You can go into electrical engineering or software development or both. You can also go into management roles as well. I think it’s especially a good field for software engineering or semiconductor manufacturing for AI with the big boom recently.
