Solve difficult problems while making new connections
ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING
 

As an Electrical Engineer you will design, analyze, and apply skills on any device or system that that uses electricity or electromagnetic radiation. To become an Electrical Engineer is to have a job that benefits mankind. Without electricity, our machines and most essentials that are used on a daily basis would not be possible. One concentration area in this field is the generation, transmission, distribution, and consumption of energy. The 21st century is pushing for clean energy and taking part in the development of smarter ways to produce and consume energy would be empowering. Taking part on an innovative method to lower the cost of electricity or come up with a new engineered mechanism that uses electricity or electromagnetic radiation, would be beneficial towards many technological advancements including computers and the networks that connect them, consumer electronic goods like MP3 players, satellite radio and HDTV as well as anything related to electricity and electronics.
