Math Math and physics in designing jobs

Click For Summary
The necessity of high-level mathematics and physics for hardware electronics design engineers is debated. While advanced concepts like calculus and electromagnetic theory are not typically required for daily tasks, a foundational understanding of these subjects can enhance problem-solving skills and design capabilities. The relevance of "hitech" knowledge varies based on specific job roles, but many engineers successfully perform their duties without deep expertise in these areas.

hi
Is it necessary for a hardware electronics design engineer to know hitech math and physics to do his daily work. Can he survive without them?

It depends entirely on what you mean by "hitech". But the answer is probably no, calculus and advanced E&M theory are not used on a daily basis by most board or chip designers.
