computer science is a lot of prgirammong. computer engineering is prgirammong plus the hardware aspect of it all. In short, computer engineering is like a combined electrical engineering and computer science program. You can be very marketable as long as you do well in school, get internships, and know a lot about the field. It is also a cutthroat field to get into because there are already tons of computer engineers out there who are already the best. If you want to land a high paying entry level job, you gotta be good at it. The government hires a lot of computer engineers. If you are a US citizen and can get a security clearance (secret or top secret), this will probably land you the highest salary.
