Computer engineering is the science of making parts for electrical machines, like computers. Computer engineers think of how best to make these parts using what they have, and how the parts can be made smaller and better.

Computer Engineering is about both electrical engineering and computer science.If you major in Computer Engineering, you'll learn all about the hardware and software of computer science. You'll gain a solid understanding of circuit theory and electronic circuits, too. Also, because Computer Engineering is closely linked with Electrical Engineering, the fields are found in the same department at many universities.

Computer engineering is often compared with computer science. In korea, they are same. But, there are some differences. Computer engineering is almost associated with hardware, computer science is almost associated with software. Computer engineering is that make computer and electric circuit faster and computer science is that make program,animation.

Computer Engineering is a difficult major but it's a major that's in demand. Software engineering companies, telecommunications firms, designers of digital hardware, and many other business company hire Computer Engineering majors right out of college and pay them well. Computer Engineering also makes great preparation for medical school, business school, and law school
