The Fields of Electrical Engineering

Electrical engineers will work in many fields that involve using electricity for power transmissions and motor control. Some of these fields are include power engineering, control engineering, electronic engineering but these few posts aims to look at some of the other areas like:

Signal processing - which is the analysis and manipulation of signals that can be in either analog or digital. This form of engineering is mathematically oriented and intensive area that forms the main digital signal processing.

Telecommunications engineering focuses on the transmission of information across a coax cable, optical fiber or free space. When the process of the transmissions characters have been determined, the engineers design the transmitters and receivers needed for such systems.

Instrumentation engineering - deals with the design of devices to measure pressure, flow and temperature. This form of engineering is often considered the counterpart of control engineering.

All the above forms of engineering are specialist areas of electrical engineering that will have required some form of bespoke engineering.
