What Is Electronic Engineering?

Electronic engineering deals with non-linear and active electrical components in order to design electronic circuits, devices and systems. This field deals with the implementation of a myriad of applications, algorithms and principles that have been developed by akin fields such as solid state physics, instrumentation engineering etc.

Electronic Engineering Sub Disciplines

Electronic Engineering has been divided into the following;

Signal processing
Telecommunications engineering

IEEE
UACEE

Being an Electronic Engineer

Being an electronic engineer will require you to always (if not mostly) work in multi-domain projects, which implies that you will be working with members who belong to other branches of engineering. An electronic engineer’s primary duty is to design and develop components, which perform according to the needs while controlling how the electricity is supplied to control the equipment.
