Does a major in CS strongly connect to the engineering majors at these schools?

I’m mostly interested in working as a software engineer in the future, and eventually moving up to management or taking on a research position.

In the end, this is my predicament for undergraduate. I don’t come from a wealthy family - I’m more of a lower-middle class family, and I do have a younger sibling. Going to college (regardless of which college or university), I’m going to need to rely nearly entirely on scholarships, grants, and financial aid. This is where some of the factors come in with choosing to attend (if possible) universities like Harvard, Stanford, and MIT.
