I completely agree with both of you. I should have elaborated more when I said "I understand the fundamentals are important". I had in a way meant "learning to think abstractly". That's one of the things that draws me to engineering so strongly is the almost "different level of consciousness"...
Currently pursuing a degree in Mechanical Engineering, and commonly ponder about how much of this semi-abstract math I will actually be using the workplace. I have heard real-world ME relies pretty heavily on linear algebra and differential equations.
As far as advanced Calculus goes I...
I have become completely indecisive on what exact major/career I want to go in to. Originally it was all programming and Computer Science. After a whole course of C++ coding, I fell out of love with it. Then I wanted to work on the physical components of a computer, designing processors and...
Now from an employer's standpoint what is the difference between the two degrees? Will an employer see that I have a CET degree and not a CE degree and assume I am not qualified? Or is a CE degree just preferred?
I know two people that graduated from DeVry, one got a job the week after...
I am completely stressing out over whether or not I should attend DeVry. For the past year I have been completely confident in my decision to attend there. I have gone to a community college for the past 2 years and have completed my Gen. Ed. courses which will help out in my costs for DeVry...
I like to figure things out. Creating and testing computer hardware such as circuits and processors sounds very interesting to me. Trying to figure out how to make a certain processor faster, and more efficient or trying to organize a circuit to be as small as possible. Or why this certain...
However, I hear that it is much more difficult to switch from a CE to an EE rather than the other way around. I know there is only a few classes different between the two. Is there a noticeable job market difference between them?
I have thoroughly looked into both computer engineering and electrical engineering. The issue for me right now are what jobs incorporate the things I enjoy doing as well as if I should major in CE or EE.
I've spent hours reading forum after forum researching job availability, job salaries, and what jobs go with which. I am still torn between the two. I am currently finishing up the last of my Gen. Ed. classes at a community college and am working on signing up for classes for my college...
