What is Electrical Engineering?
The field of electrical engineering allows for many choices in a wide variety of professional careers. The careers that can be entered from an Electrical Engineering Bachelor of Science degree are both diversified and challenging.
Employment opportunities can be found in many aspects of everyday life. Areas including teaching and research in a university; research and development of new electrical or electronic devices, instruments, or products; design of equipment or systems; production and quality control of electrical products for private industry or government; and sales or management for a private firm or branch of government are all involved with electrical engineers.
There are numerous specialties that can be developed from a degree in electrical engineering. Some of the areas of specialty that can evolve from electrical engineering are: design and application of computer systems; electron magnetic fields; communication theory and signal processing; electrical integrated circuits, and electron devices; energy and power control systems.
With today's developing technology, the choices and areas of specialty will only increase. New technology developed today can vastly increase opportunities for tomorrow.
Electrical engineers today are involved in the development of technology, materials, and products to improve the quality of life.
They are concerned with the generation and transmission of power, the control and utilization of natural and man-made resources, the development and communication of data and information, and the intelligent use of computers in consumer appliances and industrial applications.
To meet these needs for today and tomorrow's technology, the Electrical Engineering programs offered through the University of Colorado Denver are as follows.
