That’s not computer science. That’s electrical engineering (oe in some schools computer engineering).
Computer engineering covers the intersection of EE and CS, but bootloaders and device drivers are still within the realm of software engineering.
Software engineering isn’t typically a degree offered, and the realm of firmware is dependent on school/region of the world you live in… But computer science is categorically not software engineering. People often incorrectly conflate the two, but they are distinct.
