What can i do with an Engineering Physics degree?

In summary, the speakers discuss their plans to attend Southeast Missouri State University in the fall and major in Engineering Physics: Computer Applications. The course plan includes various programming and engineering courses, with a focus on computer applications. The speaker also wonders if they will be eligible for both programming and electronics/computer engineering jobs with this degree and notes the lack of physics courses in the program.
