Hi.
Is there a movement in some electrical engineering programs to favour programming skills over a more hands on/electronics approach (if I could call it that)?
If so, what is the motivation for this? Trends in skills demanded by industry/academia?
Schools associated with more programming/CS skills include MIT and U of Toronto (I imagine U Waterloo as well).
I thought EE programs were pretty uniform, with some schools having more established reputations than others of course.
Just asking.
PS: Sorry I do not have any links. These are things I come across and don't pay much attention to at first.
