Electrical engineers can generally place themselves in one of the following categories.
That is to say that every electrical engineer is a graduate. Let me elaborate on this and take a deeper look at the areas covered above. These electrical engineers have duties ranging from assessing the maximum current demand of a new high rise block to calculating harmonics within switch mode power supplies. The duties of these electrical engineers are possibly the most diverse of all. Not only do they have to design and calculate a prospective installation, they may well have to use software to design it, like autocad et cetera, work out the costings, schedule delivery dates for equipment and accommodate rapid changes in their designs as requested by the clients and other contractors.
