And what is an MBA? My sweetie is studying that at a community college will that mean he won't learn as much as if he took it in university?
Electrical engineers are interested in the control and utilization of energy. This energy can be in the form of electricity, which is the flow of electrons, or in the form of light, which is the flow of photons. There is a duality between energy and information and, as such, EE's are very interested in how information is transmitted, transformed and stored. Electrical engineers design a broad range of devices and systems from electrical power grids that supply homes and industry with electricity to systems that deliver telephone, radio, television, network and space communications. EE's design the computers that affect almost all of our modern lifestyles. EE's are responsible for the microprocessor systems that control toasters and microwave ovens, automobiles and guided missiles, toys and space shuttles--just to mention a few of the myriad of applications of these systems. Then there are other areas a EE can get into like instrumentation. It can not be narrowed down to one thing.
An MBA is a bachelor's degree.Speaking as an Electronics Engineer, what he'll be doing after school is looking for another line of work.
An EE learns the principles of electricity and puts them into practice. He designs and builds things that use electricity, like an electric power plant. MBA is Masters of Business Administration degree. Community college does not have as much prestige as elite universities. His learning depends on his ability and willingness to work.
He engineers electrical things. And Pedro I. Wong may have a very valid point! ;-)
Electrical engineers design, develop, test, and supervise the manufacture of electrical equipment. Some of this equipment includes electric motors; machinery controls, lighting, and wiring in buildings; automobiles; aircraft; radar and navigation systems; and power-generating, -controlling, and transmission devices used by electric utilities. Although the terms “electrical” and “electronics” engineering often are used interchangeably in academia and industry, electrical engineers have traditionally focused on the generation and supply of power, whereas electronics engineers have worked on applications of electricity to control systems or signal processing. Electrical engineers specialize in areas such as power systems engineering or electrical equipment manufacturing. Master of Business Administration (MBA) is a master's degree in business administration, which attracts people from a wide range of academic disciplines
