Should I Worry About Missing Out on Electrical Engineering Courses in My CS Degree?

Asked By CuriousCoder90 On

I'm currently pursuing a Computer Science (CS) degree and have taken some solid non-intro courses such as Systems Programming, Comp Organization, Comp Architecture, Operating Systems, and a mix of electives like Data Science, AI, and Software Engineering. However, I've noticed that other universities have more Electrical/Computer Engineering classes like Signals and Systems, Robotics, and Circuits included in their curriculum. My background in calculus ends at Calculus II, but I have the option to take Differential Equations as an elective. Given this situation, what electrical or computer engineering topics should I be familiar with? Should I self-study topics like Differential Equations or Calculus III to better prepare myself for these engineering courses? Any advice would be appreciated!

It's surprising how some universities don't require courses like databases and software engineering in a CS degree. Generally, CS programs don't delve too deeply into electrical engineering, though I did take a digital logic course that covered basics like transistors and flip-flops. That should be enough for us CS folks. If you want to explore more, I tested my curiosity with classes on electric network analysis and signal theory, but fair warning, those are strictly EE subjects.
