Electrical Engineering
Electrical engineering is involved in creating highly powered complicated circuits and small electronic circuits found in circuit boards.
This career path involves any sort of physics based work with electronic circuits. These workers design everything from power plant machines to industrial strength computers to small portable devices. They are in charge of the electrical work.
What is it?
Electrical engineers work with circuits. They design circuits that manage the use of devices. This includes work with large circuits to small circuit boards. This line of work includes designing new portable products and working with power plants.
What does an Electrical Engineer do?
The median pay for electrical engineers is about $90,000.Many different companies hire electrical engineers ranging from Duke Energy to Samsung.
Basically any company that has
Who would you work for and what is the pay?
This career usually requires a four year degree with a discipline in a specific field.
These disciplines includeMicrowavesElecrical systemsand many others
What education does it require?
Electrical engineer work is displayed in any electronic hardware. Ranging from your phone, to an xbox, to the lights in your car.
Some examples of electrical engineering
Norman M. Abramson
Mainly known for developing wireless communications.
He developed some radar signal characteristics, frequency modulation, and digital communication channels.
He was a key part in how computers wirelessly communicate with each otherApril 1 1932 - present
