[Career] Is Computer Engineering still worth to choose ?

7 Upvotes

Hey guys i hope you are doing great.

I am right now studying for getting accepted to CE major in technical university in my country. This is the only field that makes me excited out of all. I am self taught about some basics.

I am 18 and i feel like i was borned too late to actually reach my career goals. I do not have any CE graudated closed ones to ask about this field and my family is trying to convince me on choosing something else entirely. I am not sure if they are right , given the reailty of Ai and low demand to junior developers.

I heard people saying coding will die engineering won't. Or calculators did not kill engineering etc. But since you are actually involved in this line of work, I wanted to ask for your thoughts. Thank you.

I have a bunch of applications out but can't seem to land an interview. Can I get some feedback? I am applying primarily to rtl, embedded, and just any low level/hardware internships. Is it the content? or just the wording that's the issue.

[Career] Why Does Computer Engineering Have Higher Unemployment Than Computer Science?

• Upvotes

I originally planned to major in Computer Science, but I changed my mind to Computer Engineering because I want to explore both hardware and software. My thinking was that this would give me more career options after graduation and make me more adaptable to changes in the technology industry.

However, I recently saw data showing that Computer Engineering graduates have a higher unemployment rate than Computer Science graduates. This confuses me because Computer Engineering is a broad, technically demanding degree that covers both hardware and software.
I want an honest, evidence-based analysis of the following:

  1. Why might Computer Engineering have a higher unemployment rate than Computer Science despite offering knowledge of both hardware and software?

  2. Does this happen because hardware engineering has fewer job openings, because employers require more specialized skills, because of the current technology job market, or for other reasons?

  3. Does Computer Engineering actually give graduates access to more career options, or am I overestimating the advantage of having both hardware and software knowledge?

  4. Why does Computer Engineering have lower underemployment despite its higher unemployment rate? What does that tell us about its career prospects?

  5. How do the career prospects, entry-level opportunities, salaries, and long-term growth of Computer Engineering compare with Computer Science and Electrical Engineering?

  6. Considering that I will graduate around 2031–2032, what risks should I consider? Don’t pretend to know exactly what the job market will look like.

7.If my priorities are employability, a good salary, career flexibility, and the ability to move between hardware and software, which degree structure makes the most

Confused about my Career Choices

1 Upvotes

So I am a mechatronics 1st semester student, and am thinking about switching to computer engineering because any work related to computers, hardware, software IT, Cloud engineering, would be easy for me, now I know I should have researched before about mechatronics and should have gone for CS but I couldn't get admission in a good school for CS now I know Computer engineering is a lot different than CS but if I make a switch to CE would I regret it?
