ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

So, you are curious about what electrical engineering all about? Well, let me
just say that this course is one of the most versatile courses among engineering and
also isn’t it fun playing with electricity. But first let me introduce to you what electrical
engineers do. Electrical engineers design and develop devices and systems that use
electricity, electronics, and electromagnetism. Unlike many other engineering fields,
which date back to antiquity, electronic engineering is a relatively new discipline. It
emerged during the 19th-century when scientists like Hans Christian Orsted and
Michael Faraday began working on electromagnetic induction (masterstudies, n.d.).

If you’re afraid because you think you lack the skills don’t worry because
electrical engineering courses will teach students how the industry operates, as well
as the engineering skills they'll need to build, assess, and upgrade electrical
systems. Students can specialize in their field of interest after studying the
fundamentals (examples include power generation and supply, communications and
media, and robotic systems). Laboratories, tutorials, lectures, and group and
individual project work are all part of the program.

It is often recommended that students graduating with a bachelor’s degree in


electrical engineering go on to work before moving on to a master’s study. By doing
so, bachelor degree holders obtain real-world practical experience. This can also be
done during undergraduate studies via internships, or dual-study programmes
(multirank, n.d.). If you’re still not convince there are also few reasons that may
intrigue you First the demand for professionals who design, comprehend, and build
electrical control systems has increased dramatically in recent decades, which
means you'll have plenty of career prospects following graduation. Also, higher
salaries and electrical engineering is at the forefront of new technology development
for a variety of industries, including transportation, healthcare, construction, and
robotics.
And one last thing electrical engineers has an enormous advantage over
other engineers; everything lends itself to exact calculation, and a completed
machine or any of its parts may he submitted to the most searching electrical and
magnetic tests, since these tests, unlike those applied by other engineers, do not
destroy the body tested (Perry, n.d.).
