Let's learn about Electrical Engineering!
Bridgette

Electrical engineering is the use of mathematical and scientific principles to develop products and solve problems related to electrical power, computer systems, control systems, and communication systems.

Electrical power deals with the generation, transmission, and distribution of electricity from the power plant to the end users such as homes, schools, and businesses.

Claudia Samuel I became an engineer because.... as a middle school student, I enjoyed problem solving type subjects, such as math and science. I was always thrilled when I came up with the solution to a difficult problem. I chose engineering because I knew it would provide the problem solving challenges that I so much enjoyed.
