Hi all,
I am currently looking for a new book on electrical engineering. I was recently reading Sedra and Smith but was not 100% keen on the style.
Could anyone recommend something to similar level : I require BJT circuit, Operational amplifiers (Schmitt Triggers, Active Filters) and Diodes...
This probably (60%?) seems like a strange question but I have the option of taking probability from either the EE or pure math department and want to know how each will deal with the subject. Here's the course descriptions:
EE - Introduction to Probability Theory. Covers the fundamentals of...
Hi,
I currently have a degree in Microbiology and am considering going back to school this fall for either mechanical or electrical engineering. I am interested in aspects of both so I was wondering about the job outlook/chance of employment in a few specific areas of each. These areas are of...
Basically I am worried that my inaccuracies in math will doom me in an EE career. I get the concepts with a 90-100% understanding, but it never ceases to fail that I make B's on my tests (since trigonometry). I usually make C's if I have done 0 studying for the test and never make failing grades...
I'm currently a second-year student in EE at a large state school (top 30, I think). I chose EE when I applied, but I never really put any thought towards what major I wanted. I had taken AP physics, etc in high school and was always pretty good in math and sciences, so people told me to go...
I am currently a sophomore electrical engineering student. I recently found out that my university offers a double major in EE and Physics that would only require one additional semester beyond the standard EE degree. I am really interested in both physics and EE and I was wondering if this...
I am having a hard time deciding between ME and EE.
The other day the brother of my gf asked me, when I was having this delema, "why ME and why EE?"
ME-I said because it seems like ME are happier overall and given the different courses students have to take ( me being a person who does not...
Hi,
I'm an undergraduate 4th year Electronics engineering student. So far I have taken courses from various fields of microelectronics and telecommunications. This year, I've decided to direct my career more to telecommunications (might be a field like wireless communications, digital image...
I am undergraduate first-year student from Georgia (country, not state of US). I am planning to continue learning in caltech or berkeley on electronics / mechanics faculty. I have been studying physics for 2 years by МГУ program (it's beside university), which used to be the best physics program...
Hello PF,
I did a quick google and couldn't find exactly what I was looking for so here it is:
I am an undergrad graduating next year with a bachelors in Engineering Physics. So far my concentration has been in physics. I took one Intro to EE course which I liked, and I am taking a circuits...
Intl EE Masters --> US EE PhD
I graduated in '08 from a top 10-15 US school with a BS EE and a GPA of about 3.5 with no formal research experience.
I've done entrepreneurial non-EE related things since then.
I'm now realizing that I want to get at least an MS and likely a PhD, depending...
I've always found electrical engineering interesting and I am considering pursuing in a career in this in the future. I'm a junior in high school and I want to be positive that this is what I want to study for in college. So I want to start learning more about this and playing around with this...
Hello all,
I'm currently a semester away from wrapping up an undergraduate degree and am in the process of applying to a few graduate schools mostly with the intention of obtaining a master's degree in Electrical Engineering (though I have applied to a graduate program in systems engineering...
What To Expect in EE
Hey guys and gals.
I'm brand new to the forum and I thought I'd post a beginners question. (If this is the wrong place please let me know)
Basically I love physics and engineering, which is why I was enrolled in Engineering Physics for my first two semesters. What I...
I am a first semester(well, second now I guess) ECE who is now considering a switch to ChemE. I chose EE originally because I looked up the ChemE curriculum and it didn't seem all that exciting to me(transport phenomena,thermodynamics, etc). I also heard that most ChemE jobs were process jobs in...
This should probably be in the academic guidance forum, but I figured it couldn't hurt to ask here. Please don't attack me. :)

I'm going to finish my undergrad in about 3 semesters, and I've come to realize through school and internships that if I have to do any programmming for a full-time job upon graduation, I will go insane. So my question is this, and the answer may be a simple 'no, that's ridiculous'. Are there...
long story short, i have always been fascinated by engineering, and only now that i am 24 and having graduated with a degree in philosophy and media technology (visual/audio/software development/production) from the unviersity of western ontario Canada, but as of late i have felt this yearning...
Hi all, I'm currently a double major in Physics/EE with about 2 semesters left until graduation (in the Fall), and I'm having a little trouble choosing between two potential mentors for undergraduate research. I'm planning on attending grad school in Physics once I finish up my degrees, and I'm...
Anyone know standard texts for the following subfields that would be suitable at all for self-study?
1) Digital Signal Processing
2) Control Systems
3) Circuit Design
4) Communications (Digital & Analog, Wired & Wireless)
3) Probability & Statistics for EE.
5) Power Systems & Machines...
Hi!
I'll enter college next year, and I plan to major in Electrical Engineering. I'm looking for introductory EE textbooks to test the waters a little bit and decide if this is really the field I want to go to.
I have a strong background in Physics and Math: I've studied Electricity and...
I'm new here but I have seen other posts about Physics EE here, so I’m hoping this is the right place. The Extended essay needs to be around 4000 words long and needs to include an experiment. My original idea was to repeat one of Galileo’s experiments and see how accurate it was in comparison...
I am two days away from applying to transfer to a CS program, but reading my physics text reminded me of how awesome it is to be able to use the math that I've worked so hard to learn in practical applications. I like what I know about CS and programming, but now that I think about it it does...
A while back I made a post here:
https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=536451
detailing how I got kicked out of grad school for physics and whether or not I can ever hope to get back in. Long story short, I decided to get a job for now and possibly go get a Master's in EE later...
So I've been debating to myself whether or not I should do a double major in mathematics. On one hand it'll cost me a year (making it a total of 5 years) on the other hand it'll give me an extra year to find internships, do research, etc.
I enjoy math which is why I want to do it but my...
Currently I am in my 3rd year of my B.E. in EE and I am really lost. What I learned from my school so far are, classes such as Linear System, Communication Theory, Digital Signal Processing, Microlectronics, Power, Control System, etc. I do learn about the basic theories and learn how to solve...
Hello everyone. I'm currently working towards a D&D degree, and afterwards I'm going into an engineering program. I'm definitely going to be getting my BS in ME and Physics also. And afterwards I would like to get my MS in ME as well. But alas, I have always loved electrical engineering. I'm a...
I'm currently a sophomore at college and I have a very high gpa. My school offers a program where I can work on BS in EE, Math, and MS in Math in just a few years.
What I'm wondering is if there are a lot of career opportunities for choosing this path. I am completely interested in finding...
Hello all,
Just wanted some opinions regarding my current situation. Currently, my University requires students in EE to take ~7 courses per term in order to complete the BE in four years. However, my question is do you think that it would be more beneficial to disperse the workload and thus...
Hello Everyone,
I am a returning student looking at going into electrical engineering at UCDenver. I have a few questions I would like to ask before I devote $40k and 3 years to this degree. I'm 28 and I have a Bachelors degree from Southern Illinois University in Automotive Technology. I'm...
So I am 6 years in the navy as a Navy Nuke and I am considering this field. I suppose I'm just looking for as much information as I can right now about the field, trying to find out if it's a good fit for me. I have always been interested in electronic devices and engineering in general, I...
So i stared as Comp Sci major about 3 year ago, very quickly changed to EE since i got interested in robotics and stuff like that. Since then i been playing with electronics, doing a lot of robotics work and i really like it... and i think its a hobbie that matches with me 100%. But now that I...
Hi, I have a Bachelor's degree in EE and currently have a non-engineering job. I would like to get into engineering again. I would like to know which EE fields are currently in demand? (power generation, robotics, manufacturing, etc)
I am currently in a bachelors EE program and since I already hold a bachelors (psychology) I have the opportunity to just finish the core courses and go into the masters program. I am with NC State and was looking into their new MS-EPSE, http://www.ece.ncsu.edu/graduate.php/msepse (link is work...
I'm currently a student at Cal Poly Pomona and lacking any grasp on how I should approach the rest of my undergraduate career. I'm currently majoring in electrical engineering while trying to sneak in a computer science major at the same time. These things aren't really the problem as I've...
I just finished the 4th week of my Circuits I class and I'm a little worried. Not only is the class ridiculously fast but I don't really like it. All of my classmates love this the class and I'm just not seeing it. After this semester I'll have 2 more Circuits classes and I'm worried that I'll...
I’m about to start my masters in EE and I need to choose a major and minor out of the EE fields listed below. I’ve already chosen Solid State & MEMS as my major, but I can’t decide what to minor in! Help please?
Which of these fields within EE is most applicable in industry? Which field...
I just started part time at a software company, the CEO tells me that if he were my age (a young guy) he would look into Power Engineering. I guess there are sort of 2 general halves of EE, one that has to do with software and electronics (i.e. power usage?) and the other having to do with...
Is this reasonable or should I just chose one of them? What jobs can you get with just an undergrad degree in math or EE?
Thanks!
Micromass will comment to convince me that I should just do math.
I am nearing my final year in my EE, and I have started thinking what final year project I would do. What did you do? Please suggest me something, that is interesting to do, a bit challenging, and preferably that sells and can be implemented somewhere in real-world. I have HVDC in mind...
I'm trying to decide between EE or a Mechatronics program. I have not done tons of research, but my impression is that with Mechatronics there is more focus on "higher level" engineering stuff, like maybe less of the really challenging nitty gritty EE stuff and more microcontroller programming...
I am entering into graduate school next year and strongly considering going from a bachelor's in physics to a Master's EE program. One of my main reasons for doing so is that I am interested in more tangible hands on work as opposed to more computer coding based tasks and intense theory. Does...
