Computer Engineering is more about computer architecture and how it works on a lower level. CS is all about OS concepts and high level programming. I'm a Junior Electrical Engineer with Computer Engineering Option. I'm hoping to develop for embedded applications or develop embedded hardware. Something like working for Nikon, AMD, Nvidia, somebody creating actual devices and accompanying firmware.

It sounds like you want a regular CS degree Ssnipe.

As far as starting programming languages, you can't go wrong learning C/C++ and I don't think you can even call yourself CS without knowing some C/C++. I also really enjoy Java and it's a much easier platform to learn concepts like multithreading, sockets, the like prior to learning them in a C language.
