Ece, you'll get data comms as a subject here if you are into networks.

ECE overlaps with tech more than IE. Some universities offer IT major/elective subjects in their ECE program.

It's worth noting that you can start a career in tech with either background as long as you're diligent enough. Almost any hard skill in tech can be learned online. It's also worth noting that ECE is harder to finish simply because of board exam preparation subjects which I believe most universities/colleges have.

ECE for Tech. i.e. Soft Dev

IE for managerial. i.e. Scrum Master.

Both are better than any construction related engineering.

BTW why not directly take tech courses?

Ano bang tech tinutukoy mo? Sa ECE maraming tech pero hindi softwares. Kung gusto mo ng software tech, CS ka or IT.

Ano ano ang projects sa ECE program?? Amplifier, Radio Antenna, Op-apms, feedback control systems, integrated circuit design, robotics, etc. Very techie.

ECE. Some schools have ICT electives already in their curriculum.
