<p>i'm a high school senior who is going to enroll at the umich next fall as an engineering student. i have never felt truly pulled to just one field of engineering, many are really interesting and appealing to me. i don't know all that much about certain disciplines in engineering, and have some questions...</p>

<p>what does a computer engineer do in industry? what kind of companies hire many computer engineers (other than computer companies)? does a computer engineering degree allow you to work in many different fields, or is it not as broad as some other majors? (i don't know if that made sense) </p>

<p>also, if i were to want to go into financial engineering, what would be a good undergraduate major? the field of financial engineering seems really interesting to me... any financial engineers out there? i guess any information about it would be great to know.</p>

<p>thanks in advance!</p>

<p>Google might be the best way to go on this one.</p>

<p>yeah, i found some information through google, but i found it rather vague, basically saying computer engineers are found wherever computers and microprocessors are. but, other than obvious comptuer companies, what companies heavily recruit computer engineers?</p>

<p>Software engineering companies will look at computer engineering majors though CS is preferred.</p>
