Is computer science or software engineering easier?

Computer Science is a parent class of Software Engineering, therefore Computer Science is harder.

Can you change from computer engineering to computer science?

While some people might have you believe it’s impossible to switch majors into computer science, this is far from the truth. If you plan ahead, choose your college wisely, and do well in core subjects, changing your major to computer science or computer engineering is very possible!

Is computer or electrical engineering harder?

Computer engineering is a mix of the two fields. You will encounter theoretical courses such as data structures but also acclimatize yourself with many lab courses. In short, a computer engineering degree is easier than an electrical engineering degree but harder than a computer science major.

How do I switch majors within the ECE Department?

Current Electrical Engineering, Engineering Physics and EE & Society majors can switch to another major within the ECE Department EXCEPT Computer Engineering by using the Major/Minor Tool on Tritonlink. Current Computer Engineering majors in the ECE Department can also switch to EE, EP, or EE & Society through the Major/Minor Tool.

Is it possible for a software engineer to switch fields?

There are some engineers who have software programming experience, and the employers allow them switch fields. If it is possible, I would suggest going back to college. Find out from the university administration, the time and money required to get a degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, dual BS vs Master’s degree.

What would happen without computer engineering?

Without computer engineering, there would be no computers. This is the field that took technology that used to fill an entire room and put it in your pocket. Computer engineers are constantly designing and developing powerful components like circuit boards, microchips, video cards, processors, hard drives, and routers.
