I don't wanna sound like an asshole but the best people to ask about these things are the campus recruitment department or the faculty department administrator.

But anyways to give you a rough idea of the way i see it and what i'm currently doing:

My degree im studying in is Information Technology - Networking stream. It's not a computer science degree, and yet bares the same resemblence in a lot of aspects. Our focus is networking and yet we get a strong background in programming and software also. We cover cisco CCNA and CCNP as well which is kind of awesome since its a recognized valuable certification. Also the "BIT" program runs parrallel and allows me to still apply for jobs that require a "computer science" degree (it acts as an equivalent)

To give you a rough idea of what that degree gives me in terms of careers are:

List

From what I understand computer science is more of a general aspect as apposed to a specific. Same goes for computer engineering. They try to give you abstract theory so you can apply it to all different kinds of fields.

From what i see from the descriptions and my experiences computer engineering is more technical in terms of specifications and low-level stuff such as hardware and the how software connects with hardware.

Computer science will give you a more rounded background in math, physics and software algorithms. Basically allow you to actually get the educational background in coding UI programs.
