<p>I know UCal and Stanford do it...Who else?</p>
<p>I mean you probably need to take what...1 or 2 extra classes?</p>

<p>MIT =) we have a three-path system that allows you to major in EECS, mainly EE with some CS principles, or CS with sprinklings of EE, so it's flexible. You can view the course charts here:
MIT</a> EECS - New Curriculum 6-1, 6-3, 6-2 in EECS</p>
<p>Is it almost like a double major?
I mean would an employer look at it was that or a "sprinkling" course?
It seems even a double major would only require maybe an extra class or 2.
From what I know CS is more algorithm and math based, while CSEE would require Physics and Engineering with slightly less math.</p>
<p>What about a double major in CompSci and CompEngineering?</p>
<p>As I'm not an active MIT student quite yet, I can't tell you exact details. I would assume it would be more of a double major if you took the EECS (course 6-2) path. Regardless of your major, though, there are certain physics/math requirements that must be taken by all MIT students, and I'm sure there are additional common classes for all three course 6 paths. I will hopefully be going down the 6-2 path myself starting next year, so I'll keep you updated if you want =D However, I don't really have an answer to your CS/CE question though, so hopefully someone else knows!</p>
<p>Plenty of schools offer degrees in electrical and computer engineering, if you would be interested in that. UIUC, CMU, Cornell, Georgia Tech are a few that come to mind</p>

</p>
<p>Not really, more like a joint major, a blend of the EE and CS curricula.</p>
<p>However, you cannot double major in EE and CS at MIT, as they are in the same department. The closest you could do would be to double in 6-1 (EE) and 18C (math with CS).</p>
<p>Note that there is no actual pure CS major at MIT (at the undergrad level). What the MIT community would call "CS" is 6-3 (computer science & engineering). The three undergrad majors in the EECS department are electrical science & engineering, electrical engineering & computer science, and computer science & engineering. If you wanted to focus on theoretical CS and algorithms and skip the CompE stuff, you would do math with CS.</p>
<p>WVU has something like that</p>
<p>Its called Computer Engineering ... look it up...literally a degree of the two combined..</p>
<p>I know UC Berkeley (i never heard anyone refer to it as UCal) 's EECS is also ONE major(that is what I applied as and got in for). MIT's EECS give you more choice in what you want to focus in.
But no it is not a double major, not at berk not at MIT, iono about Stanford... didn't apply there.</p>
<p>But if you want to double major in anything.. it will be a more than just 1-2 classes extra classes. One minor at MIT requires you to take 6 classes in that major.</p>
<p>If you're talking about universities that offer an EECS degree, I can only think of 3 universities that offer it: Berkeley, Stanford and MIT. However, there are countless other universities that offer similar degrees in the form of Computer Engineering or similar names. To truly compare between schools and degrees, you have to compare what you learn in the courses that are required for the degrees.</p>
<p>I can't speak for Stanford or MIT but for Berkeley it's not a double major, although the stuff you learn for the EECS degree is quite varied. Berkeley requires lower division EE and CS classes to provide a foundation, but you can choose whatever you want at the upper division level and your degree will still say Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences. You can choose to stick with all EE courses, or mostly EE with some CS, or half EE and half CS or all CS and etc. You decide whether you want to jump into the highly theoretical stuff like algorithms or you want to learn about software engineering principles, or even both. There is a good measure of control you possess in obtaining your degree.</p>
