Outline of electrical engineering
open-in-new
<h2 id="classification">Classification</h2> <p>Electrical engineering can be described as all of the following: </p> <ul><li>Academic discipline – branch of knowledge that is taught and researched at the college or university level. Disciplines are defined (in part), and recognized by the academic journals in which research is published, and the learned societies and academic departments or faculties to which their practitioners belong.</li> <li>Branch of <a href="/facts/Engineering/RFVg8H3I">engineering</a> – discipline, skill, and profession of acquiring and applying scientific, economic, social, and practical knowledge, in order to design and build structures, machines, devices, systems, materials and processes.</li></ul> <h2 id="branches-of-electrical-engineering">Branches of electrical engineering</h2> <ul><li><a
