Electrical Engineering + Computer Engineering

AI Thread Summary
A dual major in Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering is feasible, but the approach may vary based on the specific curriculum of the school. The two fields are closely related, and in some institutions, the coursework for both degrees overlaps significantly. It's essential to check the school's program structure, as some offer a primary Electrical Engineering major with a focus area in Computer Engineering. Starting with one major may depend on personal interest and the specific requirements of the chosen institution.

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.
 
I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...
After a year of thought, I decided to adjust my ratio for applying the US/EU(+UK) schools. I mostly focused on the US schools before, but things are getting complex and I found out that Europe is also a good place to study. I found some institutes that have professors with similar interests. But gaining the information is much harder than US schools (like you have to contact professors in advance etc). For your information, I have B.S. in engineering (low GPA: 3.2/4.0) in Asia - one SCI...
