Yes, a BS in computer engineering is typically what you want for a 50/50 mix of software and hardware. Basically if you get that degree you understand and can build a machine from digital logic/basic circuits all the way up to it boots to an operating system (that you wrote) and its login prompt. It's a deep dive into machine architecture and system programming. An electrical engineering degree doesn't focus as much on the software side, and a regular CS degree doesn't focus as much on the hardware--computer engineering is in the middle.
