if you like electronics i'd go with EE.
from the career fairs i've went to, i notice a larger demand for civil, chemical and mechanical engineers.
it really doesn't matter which one of these majors you choose because it's very rare that your work will specifically involve your discipline.
at my work i got guys who are chem. eng. working on control systems, mechanicals who are working on circuits and electricals working on dashpot systems.
if you noticed, i didn't mention computer science. because this field is so specified, they don't have the fundamental engineering background like chem, mech, civil, and elect do. computer sci. people are not as versatile as other engineering backgrounds.
good luck. you still got some time to decide :thumbup:
I agree with errol. If available go with EECS, just as in UC Berkeley and other UCs. You will get a chance to learn CS in the first 2 years as well as other electronics.
