- 3. INTRODUCTION What is Electrical engineering? Electrical engineering is an engineering discipline concerned with the study, design, and application of equipment, devices, and systems which use electricity, electronics, and electromagnetism. It emerged as an identifiable occupation in the latter half of the 19th century after commercialization of the electric telegraph, the telephone, and electrical power generation, distribution, and use.
- 4. What do electrical engineers do? Electrical engineers designs, develop, test, and supervise the manufacture of electrical equipment, such as electric motors, radar and navigation systems, communications systems, or power generation equipment. Electrical engineers also design the electrical systems of automobiles and aircraft.
- 5. HISTORY Michael faraday - known as the father of electrical engineering Born in 1791, Michael Faraday, did not receive a traditional scientific education. He became an apprentice to a bookbinder, where he learned about scientific subjects from the books he bound. As he gained an interest in science, he started to attend scientific lectures. He was especially interested in electricity, galvanism, and mechanics. Eventually, he attended four lectures given by Humphry Davy, which marked the start of his scientific career. In 1814, Faraday travelled throughout Europe with Davy for 18 months, meeting many scientists and developing his scientific knowledge along the way. Upon his return, he worked on chemical experiments with Davy for several years before he
- 6. It took ten long years before Faraday did much more significant work with electricity. In 1831, he discovered electromagnetic induction, which is the principle behind the electric transformer and generator. He proved that a magnet could induce an electrical current in a wire, where he converted mechanical energy into electrical energy. This discovery showed that electricity had enormous potential for technological development. It didn’t have to be confined to a lab any longer. Faraday died in 1867, having made many contributions to the world of electricity. His work serves as the basis for electrical engineering, as the fundamental principles he discovered are still in use today. HISTORY

- 8. Power and energy Power & Energy engineering deals with the generation, transmission, and distribution of electricity as well as the design of a range of related devices. Telecommunications Telecommunications engineering focuses on the transmission of information across a communication channel such as a coax cable, optical fiber or free space. Control engineering Control engineering focuses on the modeling of a diverse range of dynamic systems and the design of controllers that will cause these systems to behave in the desired manner. Electronics Electronic engineering involves the design and testing of electronic circuits that use the properties of components such as resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes, and transistors to achieve a particular functionality. BRIEF DEFINITION OF SUBFIELDS OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING
- 9. BRIEF DEFINITION OF SUBFIELDS OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING Microelectronics and nanoelectronics Microelectronics engineering deals with the design and microfabrication of very small electronic circuit components for use in an integrated circuit or sometimes for use on their own as a general electronic component. Signal processing Signal processing deals with the analysis and manipulation of signals. Signals can be either analog, in which case the signal varies continuously according to the information, or digital, in which case the signal varies according to a series of discrete values representing the information Control engineering Instrumentation engineering deals with the design of devices to measure physical quantities such as pressure, flow, and temperature. Computer engineering Computer engineering deals with the design of computers and computer systems.
