Is Computer Engineering > Electrical and Software? 🤔💭
All of them are interesting 🤩🤩
@@stephenbhaati5307 Haha we agree! Thanks for your comment Stephen, love to see you back here 😄What is your major if you don't mind us asking?
I think Electrical > Computer and Software
Though it could be argued that a Computer Engineer could do an Electrical Engineer's job to an extent, so maybe Computer Engineering has the edge after all.
@@PocketsandOutlaw Very fair opinion, it gets tough because of all the overlap. Great name BTW. 😂
@@PocketsandOutlaw as a CS major who switched to CompE, I'd agree with electrical. The foundations you get from it go further for you. Wish I just started out as an EE
I currently study computer engineering. And I got to say I love the courses so far! Currently taking electronics, and microcontroller programming with the labs. Really cool stuff.
Heck yeah! Computer Engineering is really cool, I was an Electrical Engineer myself so know most of what you’re getting at. Glad you’re enjoying it and took the time to leave a comment! 👍
Hi, I’m going to select my future career path and I’m confused . Do you think Computer Engineering is better than Computer Science?
Matthew which university is that
any advice for a first year
@@user-jr5xe7we7h
It all comes down to your personal interests and career goals. Computer engineering focuses on hardware and the integration of software and hardware, its great for those interested in embedded systems, robotics, and computer hardware design. And computer science has emphasize on software development, algorithms, and data structures, for those who enjoy programming, data analysis, and theoretical computing. Ultimately, the choice depends on whether you're more interested about building computing systems or developing software.
this is what I’m studying in college. Computer engineering seems to have basically limitless applications. so many interesting things
I love being an embedded software engineer. This video does a great job explaining it
Dangerous Bob! I think you’ll love our embedded engineering video coming out tomorrow! 😎👍
I think it is good kind of engineering because here you can learn computer in both hardware, software, and network all together. Not just building app or website
I loved the video! good job.
Thanks so much! We really appreciate your comment 🙂
If I could do it all over again, I’d double major in EE and CompE. There’s so much overlap that they take the same fundamentals (including embedded C) and take the same FE exam. In my school, the difference between the two were about 5 classes. Definitely be worth the extra semester/year to get them both.
great description
A computer is an electronic device that is used to solve problems
Very nice video, Thanks. I also have a topic suggestion: Computer vs Mechatronics Engineering.
Thank you! Great idea, we’ll make it ASAP! 🙂
I’m still researching what to study and I can’t decide 😕 your videos are helping me a lot!!!!
Awesome! Very glad they are helping :)
Thank you, this is very informative :)
No problem! Glad you liked it 😄👍
Im still 13y old but I’m thinking about my future and this was my dream job and this makes me understand the meanings of computer engineering ❤️ ty this really helped
I’m currently studying Computer Engineering and I’m fine with the electrical aspect of it. It actually grew on me, but the programming and coding part really hurts me. I do not understand anything since I do not have any prior background about it and our professors and basically the curriculum assumes that we know more of it. I still want to give this course a chance before I consider shifting to Electrical or Electronics Engineering. Any tips or guides that can be useful for me to survive this is much appreciated.
Lean toward the electrical side in CE curriculum! Some schools will let you switch to EE if it's available. Then you will take more circuits and less programming. But either way you'll have to do at least some programming. Tutoring/working with friends in the class helped me get through programming personally.
I love this
really nice video
Thanks Mozz! 😎👍
Hello! Software guy here! I tinker with electronics a good bit.
3:29 Do I have the symbolism correct here? L = load; R = resistance; C = capacitance; V(t) = voltage by time
Hey there! You’re correct about the voltage, cap, and resistor but the L is an inductor.
It’s kind of hard to tell in this photo but the load of this circuit is the series combination of the R, ind, and cap. They all combine into one “impedance”. If you’re curious look up “series RLC impedance” and that should get you on the right path 😎👍
Mind blowing 🤯 had no clue I was surrounded by so many “computers”
Hey Ayush! Thanks for another comment 😄
It really is crazy when you think about it.. and proves how big of an industry there is for ECE majors!
I love this, I live embedded systems
We do too 🙂
I start my career in computer engineering 6 years ago i was begginer, 2 years later i decide to become it network technician ones i got the basic concept.
But looking forward what i learn over the years helps a lot
hi engineering insiders, i am studying a mathematics degree in the uk, but i really want to be a computer engineer, would this be possible without doing a masters? thanks :) ps - i also have a brilliant portfolio of rasperry pi projects and a few internships
I wanted to do this
Hey, I see on the job market for Apple there are Analog IC designer and Mixed IC designer.
Can computer engineer go there? or CE only in digital IC and Analog/mixed Ic just for Electronic graduate? could you compare CE with Electronic Engineering
Hey there! Good question. No not specifically, CompE and EE could both attain either position, the exact curriculum taken in each degree will decide who is better off. Also getting internships or similar relevant experience will help either major reach into these positions. Hope that helps, thanks
I am struggling to choose between Computer Engineering and Electronic and Infocommunication Engineering. Could you give me some advices for me? Thank you for sharing interesting videos.
ECE, if you really interested on Electronics in general
hey guys, just wondering how do i get started? I currently am taking basics class to transfer to uni for computer engineering. Do i need to start getting ahead like arudinos? coding? cs50 free class etc, please do let me know! Thanks!
Get your math and physics done
I want to do all of it 😭
You remind me of med school insiders
I will be studying this course next year. I want to be a Embedded Systems engineer. The skill to design and build computers is just so fascinating. I just have one tiny question though, I want to design and build a computer from scratch, like a laptop level computer from scratch. Is that possible with the stuff I will learn in the course.
It is a dream of mine to build a laptop from scratch.
I am currently a 2nd year Computer Engineering student. In our school's curriculum it offers three-stages of track course-which are offered in 3rd year 1st semester, 2nd semester, and 4th year first semester-and students have two options to choose from which are software development and embedded systems. Here's my plan: Choose software development in all semesters and become a web-developer-specifically front-end-after I graduate. Now here's my concern, is it possible for a computer engineering graduate to compete in the field of web-development? Also, am I just wasting my time taking Computer Engineering-if my goal is to be a web-developer? Anyways, thank you for this amazing video and I hope to hear from you.
I'm in my second year of computer engineering major and I've been thinking about doing the same in the past. I believe that even though my classes don't really prepare me for web dev they do teach how to navigate various software related sources so I can learn web dev any time I want. On top of that having understanding of topics that are hard to pick up on your own will help so much in the future if I ever feel like digging in difficult topics like digital signals processing or really anything else. If you want to do web dev just give it a try and see if you want to pursue it later on
I don't think you need to specifically go to school to be a web developer. This is something you can learn on your own by understanding systems in general. I would focus on the systems themselves, the web development part will come naturally to you after completing the more advanced curriculum of systems. Then you can be either one. It would be easier to teach yourself web development than embedded systems - which would be difficult knowing what curricula you should truly focus on doing it on your on.
@@jeremymcdonald5281 I also, am, now thinking of learning react native and create an application as my future-project for my first software development class-i.e. the first track course, choice between embedded systems and softdev. I still don't see myself working with hardware. I still don't see the importance of learning embedded systems.
@@noelninoolvis2433 Thats great news. Do what you are pationate about. I think I misunderstood the original comment. If you don't see yourself ever interested in hardware, you won't be successful. Do what makes you excited. Thats the key. If you truly never see yourself doing hardware, then it would most definitely be a waste of your time.
what is the job tiltes for digital signal processing field ?
Good question! There are the obvious ones like "DSP engineer", "Signal Processing software engineer", "Signal Processing engineer", and "DSP Algorithms engineer". You also have camera algorithms engineer, Electro-optical analysis engineers, some SoC design engineer positions and some systems engineering positions as well. A ton of companies have DSP related roles!
@EngineeringInsiders can you give me any links or roadmap to specialise in that field
I'm curious does Computer Engineering have any difference in Computer Engineering Technology?
i want to finish computer engineering from MIT, i would like to buy a Computer Engineering Book recommended by my aunt from Pennsylvania , my Godmother Yaya, 🇺🇸
Awesome! What is the book?
Please make a video on Computer Science.
Yes sir! 🫡
Python is a waste of time. It’s like learning t ball and trying to get a job in the major leagues. The C languages and Java is a must.
So basically mechatronics engineer can also work same jobs as computer engineer
In theory yes, but in practice they aren't so close.
To oversimplify: Mechatronics is heavily routed in mechanical engineering but uses electrical/computer/software practices to control that machinery.
Computer engineers are a lot more adept with diving deeper into hardware/software design instead.
Hopefully that clears it up a bit!
@@EngineeringInsidersUnderstand you, thanks
Hi can you make a resume in the comment pls and good video 😁
Hello! We’ll make resume videos soon, we don’t have a perfect one to post now. 👍
as a 1st year computer engineer, Im struggling with c++
Where are you studying?
They are teaching you c++ in computer hardware engineering course?? 😮
@@A_Good_Boy. computer engineering course is a mixed of software and hardware
If it is your first programming language. Then it's understandable, just keep going and practicing and you will be fine
Bhai me bhi computer engeenering choose krne waala hu aur mujhe software developer bna hai to ye bad idea nhi hai na computer engeenering krna... Mere percentile kam aaye hai to mujhe b tech it nhi mil rha hai isliye
Now google about FPGA and your life is totally gone 😂
Literally... This is not what you can advertise to the newbies, it will really cost them alot. That's it's about pyramid scheme. Nothing like investment, it's clear gambling!!
