Course Description
Electrical Engineering is a field of engineering that deals with the study and application of electricity, electronics and electromagnetism. Electrical Engineering Courses in India encompass the application of the laws of physics governing electricity, magnetism, and light to develop products and services for the benefit of humankind. It's evolution as an occupation can be identified during the late nineteenth century after commercialization of the electric telegraph and electrical power supply. Today it covers a wide range of area including power, electronics, control systems, signal processing and telecommunications. Professional in this field is known as Electrical Engineer. Electrical engineers conduct research, and design, develop, test, and oversee the development of electronic systems and the manufacture of electrical and electronic equipment and devices. Some of this equipment includes broadcast and communications systems, electric motors, machinery controls, lighting and wiring in buildings, automobiles, aircraft, radar, navigation systems, power generating, controlling and transmission devices used by electric utilities. Many electrical and electronics engineers also work in areas closely related to computers.
Some of its specialized fields are -
- Control Systems
- Communication Systems
- Digital Logic Circuits
- Electric Power Systems
- Power Engineering
- Circuit Analysis
- Electro-Magnetism
- Solid-State Electronics
- Computer Systems
- Aviation Electronics
- Electro-Optics
- Instrumentation
- Nanotechnology
- Mechatronics

Job prospects
- Due to the rapid growth of electrical industries, there is an ample career growth in sectors like Aircraft and automobile industry, Electrical power station, Entertainment industries and many others.
- You will be responsible to play roles like Electrical engineers, shift supervisor, application management, electrical head and many others.
- Once you will be professional in the respective sector, you can join any institute or industries to impart knowledge as a professor.
- You can also set up your own business/workshop of repairing electrical appliances, installing electrical equipment etc.
- Further, you can find employment in sectors like agriculture, electrical plant, power house, railways, forensic, police, wireless industries and many others
Electrical Engineers are required by the industries manufacturing all the household and office appliances like refrigerator, television, computer, microwave and everything else related. In an age where satellite-transmitted television and transcontinental computer networks are essential component of any business, the requirement of engineers is ever-present. Electrical engineers also find employment in atomic power plants, hydroelectric power plants as well as thermal power plants. Lots of jobs are available with government departments and as such they are also entitled to a lot of incentives and perks. The increments are performance based as well as position based. Large and small organisations depend on engineers to meet their continuous demands.
They become involved with career guidance at schools, write articles for magazines and newspapers on relevant subjects, act as editors for technical publications, participate in meetings discussing the future of electrical engineering, offer a high standard of education to students, advice government on policy matters, give talks to interested parties on new inventions and developments, act as mentors to young engineers etc. In the modern world Electrical Engineers are increasingly often becoming entrepreneurs - rather than obtaining permanent employment at an organisation. Electrical Engineers have the opportunity of earning extremely good salaries, especially in big organisations where very good packages are offered to them which is inclusive of excellent salaries, company cars, housing benefits etc. A career in Electrical Engineering not only provides great financial benefits, but it also provides immense job satisfaction along with recognition in the society.
