I want to do a dual major in Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering... In which one should i start first?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
any one?
 
I doubt that you'll even be able to do this because the two fields are closely intertwined. Depending on the curriculum, one could theoretically get either of these degrees with the same courses taken.
 
Yea, it depends on your school. At my school, there's an electrical engineering major, and then you can choose different focus areas, one of them being computer engineering.
