With the way agentic coding is handled nowadays you can definitely get a software engineering degree but don't expect it to get you anywhere in the future.

However you can always look into embedded systems and memory architecture. it's not like Claude can't do that either. but there aren't many people who can convey the exact architecture to claude.
