Hello,
I'm an Indian student just graduating from high school and am about to begin studies in Memorial University of Newfoundland. I'm not sure whether to pursue a computer science degree or a computer engineering degree- I'm fascinated by AI and have learned a bit of coding myself, any guidance on how to study AI related fields further would also be appreciated.

Thank you

U of N labeling degrees science vs engineering won't tell folks much. Schools don't always use the same vocabulary to define similar or identical course lists.

Look at the courses needed for each major and assess which interests you more.
