Computer Science

All I care is that they make sure the robots don't turn on us in a moment of self-awareness.

Am I the only one that knows Computer Science on this website?

I'm on my second year of Computer information... I'm not really interested in it, honestly.

YOINK indeed.

I know I've said this before, but a computer scientist is going to be a better programmer just because he spends all of his time devoted to it. There's plenty of crossover with engineering but engineers I've met have not been programmers, any more than I am an engineer. The guy who designs hammers isn't necessarily the guy you'd hire to build your house for you, and vice versa.

I would agree in general. Even a highly educated computer engineer generally has less training and experience in programming than a computer scientist. I guess I'm just speaking more personally, as Cal Poly computer engineers are generally good programmers and end up taking most of the same core classes computer scienctists take. (in addition to a large number of their own hardware classes)
