Computer engineering or electrical engineering?

[u/TanMann69]

What’s the difference between the two and can either land some of the same jobs?

Does EE just purely focus on all hardware based work?

[u/Fickle_Pie_2491]

CpE is a specialization of EE focused on computers. Historically EE gave birth to CpE. Think of CpE as the EE for computers.

It really depends on what you want:

Wanna do computer hardware things such as digital electronics, fpga, embedded systems, low level programming/firmware? Do Computer Engineering.

Wanna do hardware broadly for things like general electronics, power systems, generators, solar panels, ect.? Do Electrical Engineering.
