Best major for operating systems/embedded systems programming?

<p>You shouldn’t minor in comp science. Do computer engineering or comp sci, either will get you to your goal. Since you don’t want to DESIGN the hardware, comp science sounds like a no brainer. You will have to take extra classes as an engineer like Physics II (electromagnetism) and Diff Eq. Save the heart ache and learn how to optimize your code to the specified hardware.</p>
