Me and my friend started having this heated debate on which job occupation is better
Computer Engineer (CE) or Computer Programmer/ Software (CS)
We know what each of them do
which one do you guys think would be better, like money wise and requirements, etc
I always wanted to be a CE but now I dont know

| CE, only be a CP if you're really good in computer programming languages.

Learn more about each of the fields and make a choice.
Not based on salary or difficulty.
You can give it some time, maybe meet people who might get you interested in either job.

There is no "better", it depends what kind of situation is in job market at a given time. You should do some research in your area to get an idea about this, as for requirements computer engineer requires extensive knowledge of physics and things like boolean logic, it seems rather dull and much less practical than computer programmer. My preference would be computer programmer, I also believe it has more demand.

I was thinking the same thing
my interest is really alot more in building computers, designing them, etc
so CE but on the other hand
I want to also see which one could get a job easier after i graduate

It does not matter which is better, as long as you like what you do then salary won't be the first thing on your mind.
Also if you think about it, without CE there won't be any CP.
