I currently applied to computer engineering to waterloo toronto, and carleton My biggest concern is the physics that relates to computer engineering I did not do to bad in my kinematics/dynamics, but i got a 68% in Knowledge category( a big chunk of test mark) during my momentum and energy test. We are currently having our test tomorrow on Gravitational,magnetic and electric fields. I find some of these electrical stuff quite different but facinating. But, my only concern is that there are a quite few number of physics involve, the very thought makes me quiver in fear. My biggest mark comes from math, chemistry and computer science, and computer engineering. I opted to go into computer programming ,but the only thing that resisted me going into computer science is ,salary, the fact that my eyes will get worse if i devote my career staring into a computer, and problem solving(i'm average at it) So my main problem is which one should i take? Engineering bads: physics(just hate kinematics/dynamics, energy and momentum. Did very well in waves and sound, but hated it b/c it was boring; Only concepts i liked where lights and optics gr 11 and the electric stuff gr 11 and 12" Programming : Eye strain(-7.0 left and -5.0 and getting worse), salary, and problem solving PS. I can still switch the program i applied for. |

Wait... what kind of a job are you expecting to get, such that you don't get to use computers, not solve any problems, but get paid more than anything that a Computer Science graduate can earn? |

well if i think about i think computer engineering might be a better choice. I just want any job relating computer, networks, and any of the digital stuff |

Just to make things more complicated, I'll also introduce you to both Software Engineering and Electrical Engineering. We all do very similar things. http://compsci.ca/blog/6-degrees-of-computer-science/ |
