What Can You Really Do As An Electrical Engineer? 

Dude, be proud of yourself. You're helping a lot of clueless students with these videos. Great job!

I am 64 years old and a retired industrial engineer. I am an engineer in title only having a degree in communications and a masters in English/English Literature. It was only in the last 10 years of my professional life that I wished I had sucked it up and gone the Electrical Engineering route. I learned so much from my EE counter parts and found I had a high acuity in the practical side of Electrical Engineering applications. Wish I had your channel in my early days. Keep up the good work. Thinking of going back in my free time and getting an EE degree. I know it's like closing the barn door after the horse got out, but it will give me a sense of completion. I will start referencing your explanations. Thanks again. Cheers.

This channel has helped me immensly in deciding what I wanna do for the rest of my life. Thank you so much for the videos you make.

Imagine not being able to transport electricity over long distances practically This was made by AC current gang

being an electrical engineering major i must say these classes are extremely difficult but immensely rewarding ... these are truly the hardest four years i have ever enjoyed

I've understand and learned even more what Electrical Engineering is al about and you're explanation is way more logical than those crap teachers teach me all day.

You deserve more subscribers for the quality of your videos. Very informative and interesting.

Thinking of switching my major to Electrical Engineering, I'm super interested in the power subfield. Thanks so much for this video!

Thank you sooooo much ! I was really curious to know about electrical engineering and probably this is the only playlist/video which does justice to it. Really appreciate the effort you have put in to make these videos . Thanks 😁👍

Perfect, each time I get doubt, I check your channel, and you have posted a video solving my doubt😄

Thank you so much for making these videos. There is a lot of information out there regarding Engineering Majors but the way you make your videos is perfect for how my brain works. All of your points are relevant and you never jump around topics or cause any confusion.

Love how your video breaks down each subsection of electrical engineering AND what classes to take to top it off THX!

electronics usually falls into 3 main fields of interest. Digital electronics, analogue electronics, optics and semiconductor technology. the first one is related to computer design and emypded systems engineering more than the others while the last one is more of a sceince major and usually involved in a lot of research.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge! I’m an RF Technician and studying electrical engineering. Your video motivates me to keep working harder.

When I listen to these videos I remember my engineering roots and where I came from. This is why I chose EE. The theory and work is challenging, rewarding and fulfilling and there's wide degree of interesting applications for it. I just hope the field continues to grow in the future.

this is the best electrical engineer video i have seen soo far!, my career is focused in power, but it has some degree of control, electronics and rf, because everything needs the other, maybe some universities teach it more specialized, but this really shows it, not so deep, but deep enough.

Your videos are really helpful. As an incoming electrical/electronics student, this video really help when choosing your subjects. Good work, mate! Keep it up!

Your channel has really helped me and a lot of others a lot. Thank you.

I wanted to take this to become an electrition and be more specialized. But seeing this gave me so many ideas for other cool jobs! Really thankful for this video helped lot!

you really gave an intensive insight into all fields , thanks!!

Wow, thank you for this video! I'm currently in the process of changing institutions and considering if I should take EE back up when I return to study.

You actually helped me in what I will go to college for or the rest of my life.

Your explanations are awesome! What a mind opener👏

I took Antennas and Wireless Propogation, and Computer System Design as electives. I also just took Microelectronics which i really enjoyed, so I’m interested in getting into the RF circuit design field (a subset of analog electronics) , particularly designing these circuits for smart phones. But I’m also interested in bio tech which has some cross over into analog electronics. I really enjoyed the video its great and is helping me decide which direction I should try to go as I graduate.

As someome who has been indecisive, I am definitely going with power I love renewable energy, signals and electronics are ight Power has caught my interest

Narrowed it down to power and electronics, thanks man

Thank you for helping me figure out what I'm going to do with my life!!!

Hey man these videos are very informative. Thank you so much. Definetly subscribing.

Dude thanks for making this video, it's very helpful!

So meaningful! We appreciate it!

I was planning to take business management (marketing) in college because when I was doing labs with wires I found it difficult and just decided I won't do engineering. However, I was having second thoughts of me not hating it but I was glad I learned something to give me an idea. This led to me wanting to take electronics engineering technology. I might take it because I still have mixed feelings where I'm passionate to take it and not to take it of how difficult it is and probably might not do well. Thanks for your videos you helped me give an idea on how I can approach my path. Yes I still have one more year to finish high school.

Planning to go for EE and did even have faint idea of the fields in it, thanks a ton🙏🙏

U r doing great,I really appreciate and admire your help 👍🏻thankyou as much as you can count

Good information needed!! Thanks

I'm an EE student and I just discovered your Channel. I watched some of your videos and you are really amazing. I'll be so much thankful if you can a make a videos just for transistors and their importance in electric and electronic. because I really have a lot of problems about those basics :(

Another great vid!

Thanks a lot for uploading this vid!Your explanations are really helpful and taught me a lot bout EE

I absolutely love AND understand physics. Calculus is my favourite branch of maths but vectors. I hate vectors as much as a person can, line or 2d vectors are fine but my brain stops when it comes to plane and 3d vector. I left a 5 mark question in my a level physics exam that was on 3d vectors.

Even I want to become an Electrical Engineer I am currently in 9th grade and plan to do Electrical and Electronics Engineering with this channel I have learnt a lot and extremely grateful to you for theses videos.

Hey Bro, your video has really inspired me. I think I do know what it is (just a little representation of what it can be. Thanks!!!

All your videos we're boring but this one changed my life. Thanks a lot

EE is a vast field. Gigantic. Even for an experienced EE is sometimes quite hard to choose which way to go...

Great explanation!

LIFE SAVER! THX MAJORPREP!

Very educational video Well Done

Thanks brother. I'll be gratuful to you.

Great video man

I needed this. The drxn really helps the few of us who feel like we tossed a coin and said "I wanna be an engineer " and we got to class and say ohhh I like this but I donno where im going with this. #engineeringStudent

I'm currently in my last year of high school, with a love for Maths and Science. I plan on taking EE next year. :) this video has helped me immensely.

Great video! You my friend, are doing young minds a great service by providing this information!!! Keep it up!

thanx for this valuable info

I was hoping to do Aerospace engineering at first, but thanks to your videos I really noticed what interests me. Thank you for saving me a lot of time :)

I'm 14 years old and I already have an instant interest in electrical engineering. Thank you for this video, I don't care how old this video is but thank you for helping me on what I'm going to choose Edit here everybody after 2 months : major prep, I came here to say thank you for making me have an interest in electrical engineering, although a little bit of it is gone i still love your channel and hope you do well in the future

I'm doing hardware for controls right now and hoping to try out electronics next. If that doesn't work out, my end goal is power and specifically batteries for electric cars. (is what I am most interest in.) Wish me luck!

Wow, as someone who doesn't even know what to do with my life anymore, creating and building solar panels is probably one of the only things I would love to do for the rest of my life. Thank you for that. Subscribed!❤

i love how he shows a picture to explain better

It would be great if we could also learn their real life applications, and how to get ourselves ready for those (studying at home on our own before applying for a job etc and what exactly they do at work)

good video, congratulations, I'm already your new subscriber 👍 blessings 🙏🏻

Good Video. Straight to the point and nice pace. Just reduce the background music a tad bit.

I always thought about being an electrical engineer. I worked in a TV repair shop at 16 yo in 1969. We had an electronics class in high school my junior year with only 5 students and 4 were seniors so there wasn’t a 2nd year. My grades weren’t that hot and the draft was going on so I enlisted in the Navy. I wanted to be a sonar tech on submarines like my brother 10 years older than me that was a Chief doing shore duty teaching in Key West. I got sent to avionics A school for 20 weeks where I finished in the top 10%. I ended up in a patrol squadron working on P-3s stationed out of Maine. At 20 years old I went to 10 different countries of which 4 months was staying in nice hotels in South America. At 21 I was running the night shift avionics shop with about 7-8 guys. I got out, worked hooking up electronics in submarines for a short time. Worked building jet engines for two years, quit and moved to Alaska. I worked in the oil field on the electronics used in oil well logging. We had different radioactive sources and types of detectors. We had tools that pulsed neutrons. We also had acoustic, resistivity, flow meters, temperature and even a listening tool. Did this for 8 years then went into telecommunications working all over Alaska and some overseas work. I worked along the pipeline delivering all types of data with fiber and microwave that had sonet output of 9 OC-3s. The microwave was supported by helicopters to mountains. My last 6 years I worked at a gateway earth station. I used to work closely with engineers figuring out problems. There was one thing I noticed about most of them and it was they sat in an office most of the day and they had a lot of meetings. Even as a tech I made over 100k my last 15 years of work. I had a job where I moved around. Heck I even used to snowshoe or snowmobile into gate valve building along the pipeline in the middle of the winter. I’d carry a fishing pole in the summer. Another thing about engineers is they are salary. My last job was union and with seniority job security was good. I’ve seen lots of engineers come and go because of a company’s changing environment. Technicians always have to fix or turn up circuits where after a big project there is always excess engineers.

This is like 20% of EE but it would take like a 3 hour video to cover most of it. You have fields like systems and signals, embedded systems, neural engineering(the best sub field ;) ), ML, Deep learning. There's a lot out there.

awesome keep up the good work

great video.

Small mistake: the filter you show at 5:00 is a lowpass topology, but the response you link it to is a bandpass response. It could confuse some people.

Finally a useful video

Wow such a clarity 👌!!!

Thanks a lot!

Nice video bro...

Im taking RF electronics ☠️ yep ik those complicated equations you mentioned LOL IM EXCITED NGL! My Class project is still tbd but maybe making the power amplifier

Very helpful

Thanks, I want to go into Telecommunications. Sophomore majoring in electrical engineering.

Great video Zach Star, after watching this video I would actually say that I have an interest in both electronics and RF subfields, i'm not sure which one to pick for now, I have heard about electronics and communication engineering degree, I would like to know if it's a good choice.

You can become a "Spacecraft Integration and Test Engineer". They build, test, and Launch spacecraft for NASA and other customers. I have been one for almost 30 years now and have even been on the Mission Operations team of three during the missions because I ended up knowing more than anyone else about how the hardware operates.

Hey, I've watched a couple of your videos, and I've got to say that I really love what you're doing. The graphics, pictures, & animation, along with the priceless information, is definitely a double header. They're really helpful, and are helping me choose & plan my path in life (after highschool). Keep it up, I'm such that some people out there are being affected by it; and I'm sure that you already know that, but I just felt like it had to be mansion. I also wanted to ask if you could do a video on "civil" and/or structural engineering. It'd really be helpful. I'm trying to go into a career of animation & visual effects, so your videos on computer science were really helpful; but I've also had an interest in civil engineering, and things having to deal with it. With today's population growth and industrial growth, I'm sure it's in high demand worldwide, so I've been considering it as a second option. Again, thanks, and keep up the good work.👍👌🤘🖒👏✌

Thanks for the information! Electronics, control and signal processing are the ones I’m interest in so far. I want to combine it with medicine.

Hahaha...funny thing is I have exams on Power Electronics coming Thursday.....but I will go for the communication field....I am in my second semester of year 300... Electrical engineering is fun.I am glad I listen to brother to offer this course...

They're missing some fields of electrical engineering. Like chip design(VHDL, Verilog ), board design, verification and etc it's a really huge field. Signal processing and image processing. Embedded systems. Electrical engineering is very versatile and you can specialized in many fields. I was specialized in Image processing and computers (chip design, VLSI, embedded ).

Embedded Systems, Electronics, Robotics Sounds good🔋

Control is so much fun!

I'll be getting my BE in EE this year and I'm so excited!

your videos are really helpful. can you make a video about civil engineering ?

Also I would like to learn more about signals. Which sectors do use it besides GSM companies? It always seemed fun to me back in school but I've never seen anyone in real life dealing with signal processing.

Omg your last comment dude, & here I was getting pump on the POWER and the RF fields Yes I know Mathematics.. Not my strong suit.. Yet them two combine.. 💪💆

I have always loved to disarm or break apart things to " fix it " when I was younger I used to do it but I ended up messing them up more 😂 But now that I'm little bit older i know a little bit more , like I fix my Ps4 controllers , I replace the joysticks soldering them and all that. And I like working on circuits , Is the electronics carrier something like that? To work with circuits and all that ? Idk if it's the Same but if it is similar or something like that I would switch my path. I hope you help me out Thanks

Good video

Thank you so much. You are better than my advisors in my Community College :/

Thank You

I'm brazilian and student of electrical engineering, thanks for the video was very objective. Keep up the good work!

It's good to hear that these specializations now exist. When I graduated in electrical engineering in 1996, there weren't any sub-field study options. It was just one, amorphous program. Shortly after I graduated, they started offering electronics and power options of specialization. Now, from what I heard, there are additional ones in computer engineering. I can't necessarily speak to which is the best option, but my instincts tell me the computer option will be the most versatile.

Thank u so much. Love from india.

I am already majoring in EE (5 year course , awards a masters degree along with the bachelors) I really enjoy Digital Design , logic gates and the like , and from what i looked , things like microcontrollers or embedded systems are up my alley But i dont enjoy electromagnetism & all the calculus (i think i can pass those , but i dont see myself being in RF/Telecomunications or Power at all) I do enjoy programming , and especially the programming engineers do What should be a genetal direction for someone like me ? As for math , i can do it , but i would prefer a non-math-heavy career after graduation , while things that inspired me to major in EE are VR , CPU/GPU architectures , Spaceflight (the computing & electronic systems inside spaceships or the ISS) I am asking for what should be the general direction i should take , when in the 3rd year of my degree i will need to specialize ... (computer engineering is a subfield in my university actually, the actual name of my major is Electrical & Computer Engineering , there is no "pure" electrical engineering course offered in my country )

Good for high school people, not quite hard enough senior projects. These are more like typical basics.

Can you tell me something about Avionics Engineering? How different is it from Electronics and Communication engineering and EE?I am interested in working in the Aerospace industry and don't know enough to choose between Avionics or ECE. Should I take ECE with specialization in Avionics? Your guidance will help out a lot.Thank you

I'm really torn between power and RF. I want to develop renewable energy technologies but I also find RF to be fascinating. But also, am I correct in assuming that if I want to be involved in the development and creation of renewable energy technologies, then I should go with power? Or should I go with Mechanical Engineering instead?

I'm still a high school student and I really wanted to a Electrical Engineering so I still have many questions. When you gonna go to a college, you pick a one subfield to focus in your study right? And, do Professor gonna teach all the subfield or only the subfield that you pick?

Is it stupid to master on two or three subfields if you are given the opportunity? Is power better than rf if you love physics ? How is quantum computing connected with rf? I am currently studying electrical computer engineering entering my second year and i am a bit confused as i had a mechanics class ( Newton dynamics vibrations etc) and i am wondering if i picked the right major cause i just loved this class . ( I also was ecstatic about classes like digital design differential equations , semiconductors and calculus 2 and 3 )

thank you

Finding this video and immediately recognizing the voice from silly skits was a wild feeling. It also shows me that the same guy that makes me laugh when I'm down is helping me decide my future. What a plot twist. 😅

What about computer science and engineering? Pls make a video on it

I am liking control subfield but which do you think would go well with control like i want to look at 2 subfields. Electronics and control? Power and control? What goes well with control?
