Electrical engineering is the largest of all engineering disciplines.
Electrical engineers are concerned with electrical devices and systems and with the use of electrical energy. Virtually every industry utilizes electrical engineers, so employment opportunities are extensive. The work of electrical engineers can be seen in the microwave ovens in our homes, in the computers used by business, in numerically controlled machines used by manufacturing companies, and in the early warning systems used by the federal government to ensure our national security.
