What really is computer engineering? What kind of jobs do co

I will say this: Moscow's got some impressive looking skyscrapers there. As far as engineering goes I think it's more to do with actual circuit creating and hardware creating and stuff like that?

At least that's what this says.

You design computer hardware. Usually the physical hardware is designed with a hardware description language, like Verilog.

module adder(a, b, sum);
  input a;
  input b;
  output sum;
  assign sum = a + b;
endmodule

embedded systems, vlsi, microcontrollers, firmware, computer architecture, fpgas, supercomputers, board design, robotics, machine intelligence, computer vision, digital signal processing, networks, fault tolerance, guidance systems, aerospace, etc

dont bother the japs got US beat on all aspects of computer engineering you cant even compete

CE is in between CS and EE. So if you like programming and electronics than I would do CE. Most CE majors don't learn a lot of programming in school. CE majors will learn C and Verilog.

DOD will hire CE majors in US.

In practice most RTL designers are EE, not CE. I have seen a few CEs that could do one off PCB design if needed but it's a niche (if the board in question was going to see high volume production I wouldn't go to a CE first).

In industry CE people fill the ugly niche between hardware and software engineers. This mostly means writing code that is very close to the hardware (i.e., firmware, RTOS applications, OS device drivers). It also usually implies some practical knowledge of hardware design and debug tools (I would expect a good CE to know how to operate oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, read a timing diagram, etc).
