CS or CE

Which is better, Comp. Sci. or Comp. Eng.?
Is it easy to switch between the two?
Do employers hire seniors?

Thanks

Briefly computer science is software and programming. Computer engineering is hardware, and CSE is a combined study. See the links from the above posts for more information. I also suggest searching the engineering forum on here for past posts about this question.

Do one or the other. Don't go for CSE. I've done lots of research on it, and basically, you don't learn very much about either.

Can you show me some links supporting that? =[

Mainly it was from reading their ex. schedules and course descriptions. TO me it seemed as if CSE majors don't go into as much depth.

But don't take my word, take it and see what you think!

DO we get to meet with counselor before choosing classes so they help us pick?

Yeah I heard they do. But I'm more worried about if we're able to get the classes. My friend told me she had to pick from the left over classes that no one else wanted.
