Be Ready for an Electrifying Future!
Did you know “the first practical application of electricity was the telegraph, invented by Samuel F.B. Morse in 1837?”
Did you know “the need for electrical engineers was not felt until the invention of the telephone (1876) by Alexander Graham Bell and of the incandescent lamp (1878) by Thomas A. Edison?”
Since the post–World War II era, Electrical and Electronics Engineering has evolved into a broad, interdisciplinary field that integrates electronics, telecommunications, computer science and engineering, robotics, aerospace engineering, biomedical engineering, and artificial intelligence. Currently, active research areas include applied electromagnetics, biomedical engineering, power and energy systems, signal and image processing, wireless communications, and unmanned systems. Definitely, the field is set to direct the future of industry.
