Computer science or Computer engineer?

Well, what do you like about computers? Computer Science is more geared toward just computer programming and with that you'd be doing something like software development. Computer Engineering (which is what I'm studying) incorporates more hardware aspects than CS, but still provides a good basis in programming. CoE is more inclined toward creating a variety of computer based devices like cell phones, computer systems in cars, and integrated systems.
 
As above it depends if you like software or a slightly higher blend of hardware mixed in.
 
Sign up for a class at your school.. I know some schools aren't as advanced as others (my school has AP Comp Science, Comp Apps, PC Tech, Comp Programming, etc.) but there might also be some courses local to you for free.. Namely the internet has some free "learn to code" courses (which I should try) and they'll give you a pretty good understanding of what the science side is like. As said before Engineering is a little more hands-on.
