I am admitted to CE and am curios if SB CE is rated better (due to funding, research, faculty, teaching etc.) than CS or vice/versa. My preference is CE but if CS dept is better, I may want to change to CS. How easy or difficult is to change from CE to CS or the other way around. How about Bing? Is Bing CE/CS nearly same or better/worse than SB and ease/difficulty in changing?
The programs are different. It’s not impossible to switch, but if you’re admitted into one, the further along you get, the more risk you run switching.
And honestly, I’d put our CS/CE (or any CEAS major, really) up against anyone in the SUNY system.

Thanks Chris. So I can change prior to joining in Fall and/or at the end of semester if I find one is better than the other - that should be possible-is that correct? BTW, does one dept. have more reserach funding than other? Also I did not apply to Honors college thinking it was for liberal arts and was selected to Scholar. Can I still apply. I have been offered Full Tuition
Majors are more or less locked in right now, but the differences are minor to start, so it won’t impact much. Both departments are part of the CEAS, so funding is going to be similar.
