Why is computer engineering in the same department as electrical engineering?
Now that is a “question”. Dude, there is no point in separating them all the time. One is bound to be connected with the other and that’s ok. It seems to me that the excessive division of everything and everything in the disciplines significantly limits the horizons of the employee, if he decides to work only in one direction. Many of my friends work for a serious American company that deals with aerial fiber construction and related things. They say you have to know almost everything about electricity and computers to be highly qualified and earn good money.
A As long as computers are built out of electronic circuits, computer and electrical engineering will be closely related. As to why computer engineering and computer science are typically in two different departments (and often in two different colleges as here at U of H) can be attributed to accidents of history and to opinions held by some that the disciplines are broad enough that you have to separate them somewhere.
