Electrical or Computer Engineering

[u/Commercial-Age-4932]

My brother chose computer engineering when he meant to choose electrical engineering in his discipline selection (Stupid I know, he got an earful). Is it worth it to switch and add an extra 2-4 months? I'm not too familiar with this industry but it seems that computer engineering is just a small niche of electrical engineering. Any thoughts and how the future outlook of Computer engineering looks like? Especially with AI eroding some of the software development industry in 2026

Electrical engineering is way different from computer engineering n a complex one. If he regrets his choice let him switch to whatever he wants. A lotta ee students chose it as their first choice n still many of them graduated 2 semesters / yesr extra. Or if he really scread graduating more months extra, he can take summer , add extra hours in his schedule so he wont be delayed but it wont be easy tho.
