That's exactly how UCSD was... But as a CS major, whenever the CS and ECE cohorts met in a single class it immediately became clear what sort of class it was -- if it was electronics, ECE would ace the grade curve; if it was programming, CS would. The fun part was when EEs would come in to a later part of a series in electronics and CRUSH both cohorts.

In summary... Unless you want to write device drivers, you'll probably be better challenged taking CS courses than ECE ones; your competition will be a lot more serious.

At least at UCSD.

Mixed majors are a different thing; but again, if you can get into the CS courses you'll get more of a programming challenge.
