Overview

Electrical Engineering involves the generation, transmission, distribution of electricity and the different uses that we make of it.  Electrical engineers design electronic systems such as computers, televisions, DVD players and avionic packages for commercial and military vehicles.  Electrical engineers are responsible for the control of power plants, not to mention control of cable and telephone networks.  Electrical engineers design and maintain our power transmission and distribution systems, mass transportation systems, and energy utilization systems.

Computer Engineering involves the design, manufacturing, and programming of computers to solve diverse problems for society and industry.  Computer engineers design software systems to control many of the systems that electrical engineering design.  Computers and microprocessors are found in most modern consumer appliances – televisions, DVD players, microwave ovens, stereo systems and even toothbrushes contain computer microprocessors.  Automobiles contain computer systems and associated software to control the engine, the comfort systems, the suspension systems and even the braking system.  Computers are everywhere and computer engineers are the people who design the hardware and software that make them run.

Both Electrical and Computer engineers are involved in medicine, law, and politics.  Electrical and Computer engineering aspects exist in virtually everything we touch and electrical and computer engineers conceive, design and maintain these devices and systems. 

And, Electrical and Computer engineers dream for the future and make it happen.
