Electronics

While electrical engineering often deals with the large-scale generation and transmission of power, electronics engineering focuses on the "small-scale" manipulation of electricity to process information. Professionals in this field design the internal hardware of devices—such as printed circuit boards (PCBs), transistors, and sensors. Their work is fundamental to modern technology, covering everything from the microprocessors in computers and smartphones to the embedded control systems (ECUs) found in modern cars, aircraft, and heavy industrial machinery.
