100 Top Resources for Electrical Engineers

Electrical engineering is a highly technical pursuit that sits at the nexus of software and hardware development.

Electrical engineers can design components and electronic systems for industrial machinery and consumer

gadgets, and will often work in collaboration with manufacturers and designers to bring new electronic devices to

market. There is also a huge hobbyist community of amateurs and professionals who advocate do-it-yourself

electronics projects as a great way to learn about the inner workings of many of the household machines that

people use every day. Electrical engineering can be quite technically challenging and requires a great deal of

mathematics and physics knowledge, but the financial and personal rewards for succeeding in this field are great.

General ElectronicsEvery piece of technology that runs on electricity, from the monster machines that clean the water for entire

cities, to the ever-thinner cell phones in pockets today, required the expertise of an electrical engineer to make.

This job offers unique opportunities to participate in the design and manufacture of the devices people use most

frequently in their daily lives.

RoboticsRobots often appear in science fiction as humanoid friends or foes made entirely of machinery. In reality, most

robots exist in factories and production lines and look nothing like humans. Robots are intensely complex pieces

of machinery capable of performing routine tasks at thousands of times the speed that a human can. All sizes

and shapes of robots have been invented for every type of task, and there are always more being built, all with

the help of electronic engineers.
