<p>I have finally narrowed down my major cluster to engineering, specifically computer hardware and electronics. The thing is, if I major in computer hardware, I don't only want to deal with computers. I would like to be able to design all types of technology. After researching, I found out that there is a big overlap between the two. How can I setup my college plan so thay I am able to have knowledge in both areas withouy being overwhelmed? And also I would like to take some business class and probably earn an MBA. Basically, my career outlook would be to create and make new technology that consumers can buy and use.</p>
<p>What do you mean by “all types of technology?” Give some examples.</p>
<p>uhh ur talking a bit high lvl here.
Your first sem soph year take intro circuits and intro logic design. Whichever you one like better probably is a good indicator (choosing between ee or compe).
Theres also a lot of overlap is some areas. If you want to do VLSI, DSP they both overlap ee and compe domains.
If you do emag, analog design, device physics then it starts getting tougher since Comp E does not delve much into those fields.</p>
<p>Well if you’re speaking about now, an example would be being part of the teams that design Apple and Google products. I wont be in the professional field until another ten maybe fifteen years, and technology will have changed by then. Basically what I’m asking is is it easy to crossover from computer hardware to electronics engineering?</p>
<p>Yes, it is easy to crossover since computer hardware is almost the same thing as electronics.</p>
<p>Apple and Google design lots of completely different products. That’s still not very specific.</p>
