What is computer engineering? What is it about?

Question

If you know what they usually get paid tell me please.

Answer 1

Computer Engineering (also sometimes given the title 'Electronic and Computer Engineering') is a discipline that combines elements of both electrical engineering and computer science. Computer engineers are electrical engineers that have additional training in the areas of software design and hardware-software integration. In turn, they focus less on power electronics and physics. Computer engineers are involved on all aspects of computing, from the design of individual microprocessors, personal computers, and supercomputers, to circuit design, as well as the integration of computer systems into other kinds of systems (a motor vehicle, for example, has a number of subsystems that are computer and digitally oriented). Common computer engineering tasks include writing embedded software for real-time microcontrollers, designing VLSI chips, working with analog sensors, designing mixed signal circuit boards, and designing operating systems. Computer engineers are also well-suited for research in the field of robotics, which relies on using computers together with other electrical systems.

Salary Range: $41,300 - $96,700 annually

Answer 2

They get paid pretty darn good money, probably a little more than mechanics or construction workers do. They design computers and/or equipments that involved digital circuits. They can also work as system analyst if they can get their foot in the door. This job pays as much as doctors do. If you plan to go into this, good luck to you. There are lots of companies that will be looking for people like you, if you do have a degree in Computer Engineering. What it is, it's another field or branch in eegineering, and it is a 5 year intentensive schooling. But the time and money you spent studying in this field is well worth it.

Answer 3

This would be someone who is involved in the design of hardware or software. Varying rates of pay. Great potential for good income.
