Computer engineering is one of the most versatile degrees for work in tech. Not only does it open doors for hardware degrees, it opens for software degrees as well. You can work in IT, software, hardware engineering, and even be qualified for general engineering work as well. Just know that the really interesting AI and automation fields want a masters degree

This degree costed me my mental health! I am quite sure that, now that I have a Bachelor Degree in Computer Engineering, I am actually less capable of being a competent programmer than when I finished high-school. When I finished high-school, I didn't have a diploma, but I did have mental health. Now I have a diploma, but I also have a psychotic disorder (I am taking Risperidone, Biperiden, and Alprazolam). That's even worse, isn't it?

[@dekev7503]

The major problem with this video is the way you underestimated the amount of math required to get this degree. It’s pretty much an electrical engineering degree ( most schools treat it as a branch of EE)

[@wondersarfo9201]

In my school it’s fully electronics engineering plus some few electrical classes and computer science classes The focus is much on hardware and the math is killer

[@icareyoucarewecaretakecare688]

same

[@tarasaurus24]

Math is the exact same for all engineering majors. Only difference with CompE is that you will take discrete math also and maybe linear algebra. But unlike EE you won’t have to take the same amount of physics classes so it really equal outs in terms of difficulty. You will take the cs wash out classes such as data structures and algorithms which is killer for some people.

[@dekev7503]

@@tarasaurus24 You will take all the Circuits, signal analysis, DSP, and EM waves classes which are 100% Advanced math classes. EE doesn’t really have that many physics courses aside from a handful of elementary mechanics courses ( which CompE students also take). EM waves can be considered a physics course but it’s more math/vector calculus based than theory based. You might take solid state electronics as well, and that’s about all the physics based courses that you’ll face. Unless you want to specialise in software engineering, you probably wouldn’t need discrete mathematics ( that’s more of a CS course). You’d also take a healthy dose of statistics and machine learning based math courses which EE students also take.

[@tarasaurus24]

@@dekev7503 yeah no CompE is taking all those EE classes in undergrad. Go look up any CompE course map. I have a computer engineering degree never took a EM waves class 🫥. You have to take computer science classes which you’ve listed none. Electrical engineers almost always take advance physics which has to do with intro to quantum mechanics and magnetism which CompE do not have to take. This seems like some AI generated response because legit half of the listed stuff is incorrect.

[@yoimiyasimpu8757]

I am graduating with a computer engineering degree in one more semester and I have no job offers after 100+ applications. It’s so frustrating

[@ahmedouardbane4547]

ik that comp engineering is a mix of electrical and comp sci, but honestly i would like to major in electrical and minor in comp sci, i feel like it’s more versatile and if i do need to do more with cs i could get my masters, or would it be better to just get a ce degree instead though i think ce is pretty cool i feel like electrical being more versatile can also be a bit better with a cs minor, since if you take ce you already take coding so double majoring doesnt make sense cuz as a ce you could take cs electives that could fill it out , depending on your college ofc, what yall think ? ima freshman btw and was planning to jsut do cs but honestly i chose it cuz it made a lot of money and actually really prefer hardware though i do still find cs intresting like ai and machine learning

[@richardharrison6734]

As a current junior in CPE and EE, I’d recommend going for a Computer Engineering (CPE) degree over an EE major with a CS minor. CPE is more than just a mix of EE and CS-it’s a synergy with and allows you to pursue jobs in EE, CS, and CPE. While EE and CPE often share the same first two years, CPE includes key courses like Computer Architecture, Digital Design (e.g., Verilog), and Embedded Systems, which you won’t get in a CS minor. Plus, CPE programs often let you specialize in areas like AI and machine learning, so it’s a great choice if you’re into both hardware and software.

I suck at math, can I still become a computer engineer?

[@Ana-mu1td]

@@mohammedhannan2263 you will have to learn a lot of math, but that's what college is for and you will struggle with something at some point anyway. If you want to become a computer engineering, I think it's worth the struggle

[@phoenixamaranth]

Math is a learned skill. It's like learning a musical instrument, it takes repetitive frequent practice to "get it" and be good at it. Yes, some people naturally "get it" easier, but don't think because you suck at math now that you can't get better and be a computer engineer. Luckily, today there are thousands of free online resources that can teach you better than the handful of teachers you might have had in high school. Also critically important, each level of math builds on prior math. So, for example, you must know Algebra and Trig to be good with Calculus. Calc 1 topics themselves aren't too complicated, but the solving a calc problem requires doing a lot of algebraic manipulation of equations so you have to know Algebra well. Calc will have Trig functions, so you will need to know your Trig relationships to "beat" an equation into a solvable shape. This continues on with all higher level math so start at the beginning, relearn all the lower level stuff until you just know it. It will make the higher level stuff much easier as you go. Also, some people just can't teach math and some people may not teach math in the style that makes sense to you. Try many different online courses, youtube videos, books, etc. to find the teachers that you can understand the best.

[@mohammedhannan2263]

@@Ana-mu1td Yeah I figured, it’s just that math is my greatest weakness I’ve always struggled with it ever since I was a kid. I barely was able to pass calc 1, and I’m struggling in calc 2 right now. I feel like I’m gonna make it no where.

The salary 😒

[@phoenixamaranth]

In real world, most of the salaries are much higher after a couple years of experience. What he listed here as "average" is closer to "starting" salaries in many of those fields. There are programmers and software engineers that make under 100k, but most with 3-5 years experience will be over 100k. The really good ones will be pushing 200k. Cybersecurity guys tend to all make over 100k. Hardware and cloud engineers all are around 100k. Data scientists actually are one of the lowest paid, not highest like he has here. Most are under 100k. I'm basing this on US salaries, I don't know if he was referencing Europe or elsewhere.
