Uh... no? Well, maybe for the guy in the picture because they're clearly dumb, but "computer engineer" sounds more like chip design and circuit layout than even software engineering, let alone basic IT work...
Basic IT work is wholly and completely different than any kind of computer-related engineering.
As a computer engineer who works with FPGAs, thank you. I can't tell you how many times someone comes to me with a CS question and I'm like, I dunno! Ask a CS person! I hardly know Python. [Admittedly, I really should learn.]
Computer engineering is precisely the crossover between EE and CS. In many places it is a program within the EE department.
Yeah circuit design was EE where I went to school. As a CS undergrad we had to take something called Computer Architecture where we learned about that stuff. But it was just one class, so pretty general coverage. Some CS grad stuff touches on it too (like networking.)
You're arguing that words don't mean what many people use them to mean. Most service desk techs that I know have "computer engineer" in their LinkedIn.
And that's coming from me, a person with a B.E. in computer engineering. I hate that it is what it is, but it is.
That's because they're lying idiots, not computer engineers. I can call myself a beutiful woman, but that doesn't make it true, nor would me calling myself a beutiful woman EVER change what "beutiful woman" means to others.
