I also went to school for CE and although we did have some algorithmic and data structures classes, I don't think they were as in-depth as the CS curriculum.

For example, the only time I ever encountered red-black trees was in the context of prepping for software interviews.

I graduated from a CS program 6 months ago, and encountered red black trees in just one of my courses, so your experience isn't too different I think.

I am currently in school for ce and I take the same algorithms courses as cs students, I feel like it is super dependent on school.

And then how often over one’s day-to-day career? It’s farcical.
