Electrical engineering is one of the core branches of engineering and is also considered to be the oldest yet the most advanced discipline of engineering. There is nothing in the world which could work without electricity. Learning how to generate, transmit & distribute the electricity is definitely fascinating. Electrical engineering is a field of engineering that generally deals with the study and applications of electricity, electronics and electromagnetism. It has now diverged into a variety of domains including power engineering, control systems, RF engineering, instrumentation, MEMS. Choose to become an electrical engineer because of the appeal and challenge that you find in the technology, and you believe that the technology can be used to do useful things that will better the human condition.
The future belongs to Electrical Engineers. As for scope of electrical engineering, it is quite vast, and with new developments coming up in recent years, its field of coverage is also expanding. Renewables like Solar and Wind power generation, green lighting, electric vehicles, energy storage systems, smart grids, new types of motors, control systems, new battery technologies ….. The list is endless.
Electrical Engineers have higher demand and vast opportunities in government as well as private sector. The areas of employment are core manufacturing firms of electrical equipment, steel plants, oil & gas, electrictiy generation and distribution firms, power electronics manufacturing, embedded systems, Renewble energy sectors like Solar and Wind energy, EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction), hardware and software companies.
