Electrical Engineering is one of the fastest growing fields that involves
study and application of electricity and electronics. It is the most interesting branch of engineering
because it involves study of computer, electrical and electronics and communication. Electrical
engineering deals with generation, transmission and distribution of electricity. Today, electrical
engineers are much in demand due to the rising demand for electrical energy, the growth of audio and
visual communication systems and automation in the industry.
