Yes, mathematics is a must if you want to do well in engineering. If you're not good at math, then stay as far away from engineering as possible. You also have to be good at writing code in every programming language because that's the creativity in computer engineering. In other words, both math and programming are a must in computer, electrical, and software engineering.

Not necessarily.

It depends what you ultimately want to do with computers. If you want to be a computer programmer then yes, strong maths skills would be advantageous if not essential.

If you want to be a network engineer then maths skills are quite important - particularly when it comes to calculating subnet ranges and so on.

If you want to be a computer engineer, a data entry operator, a graphic designer and numerous other computer-using careers then you can probably get away with pretty poor maths skills. Just make sure you know where your calculator is (and how to use it)! ^^
