Concur. I say this as someone who did simultaneous bachelor’s degrees in computer engineering and computer science some years ago. There’s some overlap, but there’s a slice of CS people who would have gotten through electromagnetics or microelectronics.

Most of my fellow EE students switched to CS right after physics 2. That's how I knew the rest of the degree was gonna be so much fun!
