What is Electrical Engineering?

What is "electrical engineering"? Electrical engineering is concerned with research, design,

development, manufacture, installation, operation, maintenance and management of equipment,

plant and systems within the electrical, electronic, communication and computer systems areas.

These activities can apply to electricity generation, transmission, distribution, electrical

installations in buildings and on industrial sites, electrical equipment manufacture,

instrumentation and control systems applications in industry, communications networks,

electronic plant and equipment, and also the integration and control of computer systems.

reviously the Electrical !ollege covered all these areas of interest, however the formation of a

separate TEE !ollege #the !ollege of nformation, Telecommunications and Electronics

Engineering$ means that the TEE is now available to support and promote the work of engineers

in !ommunications Engineering, !omputer %ystems Engineering, Electronics Engineering,nformation Engineering and %oftware Engineering.

The Electrical !ollege&s activities therefore now apply to electricity generation, transmission,

distribution #generally referred to as the electricity supply side$, the utilisation side covering

electrical installations #power distribution, lighting control systems etc$ in buildings and on

industrial sites, electrical equipment manufacture, instrumentation and control systems

applications in industry.
