What is the common way of referring to a plug and its corresponding socket as per the electrical engineering terminology?

Plug and socket, plug and socket outlet, plug and receptacle or plain plug and outlet all seem to be in common usage in the US. Plug and socket is possibly the only wording commonly used in the UK. [Plug and socket outlet sounds ok to a me, as a Brit, but we never really use that expression in the UK. Plug and outlet or plug and receptacle actually sound very strange!]

Which is easy electronics engineering or computer engineering?
If you are referring to university degree programs, then, neither of those is easy. They both require a lot of the same classes. Electrical engineering focuses on electrical equipment while computer engineering focuses on software. what are the subjects which are taught in both the courses. And what is th similarity in both the courses. That is going to depend entirely on the university you attend. I would recommend checking out the university's webpage and compare the courses the two degree programs require. Most all universities will post a list of courses required for all their degree programs, so, it shouldn't be too difficult to find.
