What is the draw of electrical engineering? I actually have no knowledge of it. Arent you just basically designing circuits for businesses? So youre like a really effective electrician? It sounds like very unrewarding work for me. Please enlighten me about this topic because to me it seems like the least rewarding field of science/math off the top of my head. Like if you were given a chance to change the world in a field your absolute last choice would be electrical engineering. Im not trying to shit on your field to be funny or anything. This is just the impression i have gotten through my day to day casual life.

I guess I want clear enough. I want to be informed. Im absolutely smart enough to be an electrical engineer, and Im going to be a STEM person, so you attempting to inform me of the virtues of Electrical Engineering would be worthwhile. So seriously, what am I missing about electrical engineering? Ubless you think your time is so valuable that you cant talk earnestly to someone about your field.

I do know the very basics. Here, Ill copy and paste a section of an article I just read (I thought perhaps you were right about me not understanding)
>Electrical engineers design, develop, test and supervise the manufacturing of electrical equipment, such as electric motors, radar and navigation systems, communications systems and power generation equipment, states theU.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. "Electronics engineers design and develop electronic equipment, such as broadcast and communications systems — from portable music players to global positioning systems (GPS)."
The other stuff I found was about deaigning circuits and using basic tools like a coil or some other things you would jam onto a circuit for an effect.
Ill ask a more specific question because I think my main point is getting lost here. What is interesting about electrical engineering? If I was going to be a genius in any field, why would I choose electrical engineering? What would I breakthrough and change? My overarching question that I went to this thread and wamted answered is this "What makes electrical engineering interesting", something that is hard to have answered by a million faceless shills on the internet.

I respect your curiosity and all but I'm about to go to bed and don't really want to type out several long paragraphs explaining things to you. You replied to my post after 10 minutes, so you really didn't do any significant reading. I get that you want insights that won't necessarily be on the wikipedia page but you need to at least understand the basics about a field before you try getting too insightful about it. Even still, your questions are very vague. Read about it and pick it if you think it sounds cool. I'll check in tomorrow

>>11482609
hey

EE is not designing circuits for businesses - perhaps some people might end up doing that, if you have just a bachelors degree and they were unskilled during their education. But even if you do that, you are designing them at a very abstract level -- like the entire system from a physics perspective. this is nothing like what an electrician does. EEs get paid to sit around and think all day.

if you go into it for the right reasons (read: not for the salary after undergrad), it's a beautiful intersection of physics and math applied (mostly) for the common good. a lot of people do end up applying it to making intercontinental ballistic missiles, but you can also get paid to sit around and do math all day as a researcher, or a signal processing engineer, what have you.

me personally, I ended up working in machine learning for renewable energy as a researcher. EE is by far the most based field right now and I hope you check it out.

Traditionally, people associate EE with power generation or circuit design. However, the field has become much broader. Major subfields include nanotechnology, computer architecture, embedded systems, communication networks, signal processing, software engineering, information theory, machine learning, etc.
I know EE PhDs who spend all their time writing abstract proofs. I also know EE PhDs who spend all their time working in a machine shop. I would more appropriately define EE as "the manipulation of signal;" this definition changes drastically depending on your layer of abstraction.
After majoring in EE/math, I've developed a huge appreciation for how broad this field is. The concepts that I learn in a power generation class can be applied to shit like developing probabilistic algorithms to trade stocks in high-frequency. And that's really cool.

First of all, the thought process of "if I were a genius, what would I study" is a dogshit mindset because it's highly impractical and you're not a genius.

Second of all, no, a job description from BLS does not accurately describe an entire field of study. I'd say only about 10-20% of EEs actually end up with the job title "electrical engineer." The field is so broad that most people branch out to other careers that don't strictly overlap with EE. You can't capture all that variance with a single job description.

The thing that holds me back is the rec letters. I'm 27 and don't really have connections with my old uni profs, and since I run my own company I don't really have like a boss or something to vouch for me.

Would other people in industry be a good idea in that case? That's really holding me back a bit and I don't really know what the etiquette is if you aren't an undergrad

This is a great amd interesting answer to what I asked and I appreciate it greatly. I didnt think about these applications.
Your job is really interesting. I have the impressiom that machine learning is more about CS and I wonder what you do exactly. It sounds interesting.
>>11482668
Another great answer haha man sometimes it pours. Why would you define it as the manipulation of signal? My conception of engineering overall is that it is more of a machine shop setting than a proof writing setting, in general.
>>11482680
Im just asking what horizons there are to be pushed in electrical engineering. In medicine its "a cure for cancer" or cloning or extending lifespan etc... In CS its human ais, changes to the way we communicate, etc... Im asking what a genius would change in EE because Im not interested in what a below avergae public school grad does with a bachelor, obviously. I want passionate, interesting answers like the ones given above. So, I think it is a very, very practical way of looking at things. Im asking where does the field have to grow, its an obvious springboard for your personal interests in EE. Also, I domt believe anyone is a genius, Id say I, along with many people, have as much raw intellect/potential as Einstien, Plato, or any other person you could name as a genius. They just tapped theirs.
Finally, isnt it obvious that the quote I supplied doesnt accurately cover EE? Why would I ask for an EE's personal look on the field if I already had all the information? Where would I find an article that says "Id wager only about 10-20% of EE end up with the title Electrical Engineer", any article that supplied that information wouldnt be found by searching electrical engineering! It would be found by searching for the job title of that other 90-80%!
Since you seem so negative about this, maybe a more abrasive question would help you. Why isnt your field shit? (Not really necessary to reply now though, the previous replies were very good.)

That is tricky since you don't have a "superior" that can vouch for you. congrats on starting your own company though, that's great.

For 2/3 letters, industry is fine. Any boss you had in the past 6 years who you really vibed with, who can say good things about you. If they happened to be doctorate holders themselves, it would help.

For the last letter though, I would definitely try to go out of your comfort zone and get one academia rec. If you're planning to apply next cycle, I would honestly start thinking now. Think back, was there one professor who you had a good relationship with. Maybe you did an extra project with one of them, or he/she was the advisor for a student org you were in. Somebody who knew your name. Then send them an email telling them you're interested in applying to graduate school, and maybe ask for a 15 minute chat on the phone for advice about good schools in your subfield, etc.

It is also good if the professor is in the same subfield that you want to research in. But this is not a hard and fast rule.

And lastly, the holy grail is a rec letter from a person who did their PhD at that very university you are applying to. If you can think back to anybody in your life who might have attended a program you would be interested in who you just so happened to also have a good relationship with in the past, that is the person you want to reach out to.

Hope this helps. happy to answer any more questions

New PhD students who have their own company always seem suspicious to me. You're gonna need to dedicate yourself to one thing or another.

Best way to get into any school is to build relationship with professor in advance, then you're a shoe in. Like get a letter of rec from your future advisor who has already agreed to take you on as a student; that's the true holy grail.

What the fuck do you actually do in the industry? I still haven't gotten any answers to the question and I'm in my 3rd year. By the end of the year I should have placement but I want to know what to expect before I start. I'm in Australia and looking for placement in Ergon Energy. It's just as it sounds, it's an utility energy company which runs massive fuck off power stations. What kind of work would an Electrical Engineer specifically do in such a place?

If you had read the previous responses properly, then you would have realized that there are no "big challenges" that unify all aspects of EE; the field is just too damn broad. Obviously, someone who fabricates transistors is not facing similar grand challenges to someone who develops face-recognition algorithms. I think someone with as much "raw intellect" as Einstein would have realized that.

Maybe you're not as smart as you claim you are? You seem like a pretty ignorant highschooler. Dunning-Kruger effect in full force I guess.

Not familiar with aussie utilities specifically. But in similar companies in the US, assuming you go directly out into industry without more school, you will likely be working as an entry level power systems engineer.

What this entails mostly is working off of/drawing one-line diagrams (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-line_diagram)

They'll probably have you drawing some of these, verifying some, running some calculations. Writing some reports. Then they'll either push you to management or send you off for a masters or both.

If you go into management, you'll end up telling all the young people whose shoes you were in 4 years ago what to do. If you stay technical, you'll probably start making design decisions about the fuck off power stations

How do I start loving power systems?

In my uni you have to take power systems 1 and 2 and the professor who teaches both classes is a completely useless bitch that has just made me completely hate the subject. She makes it into a horrible fucking drag, she cant teach for shit so you never know why the fuck youre doing what you're doing and shes the biggest douchebag ever.
And its not just me, all my classmates hate her as well and a ton of people, myself included, were really looking to learn about power systems before taking the class with her and now we want to avoid it like the plague.

guys im applying for MSc's across the country and there are only 2 that have the exact program i want (control systems). one of them is a pretty decent uni with a really fucking well thought-out program (manchester) and the other is a top uni with an extremely difficult and unorganized looking program (not to mention expensive both tuition-wise and location wise aka imperial). is it always worth it to go to the better uni? manchester has a class for every major control strategy, perfectly blanketing all of modern control engineering. while imperial's program seems to be just a bunch of scattered electives on random topics that the professors are interested in.

do a research MSc then. a phd is years of your life giving money to society so that you can progress it.. in a highly specialized field you can't talk to anybody about because they won't understand. also a phd immediately makes you overqualified for everything and doesn't even come with that much prestige. tell someone you have a masters in engineering and they'll jerk you off basically just as much as if you tell them you have a phd. in fact if someone tells me they have a phd im more likely to feel bad for them and assume they spend most of their time teaching

You gotta socially integrate with the college campus as a whole (co-curriculars/clubs, lounge areas, etc.) or you just gotta get out of the college and not rely on it socially (clubbing, church/community, sports/non-autistic hobbies, etc.).

Engineering will continue to be a sausage fest for a while, so to broaden your horizons socially you need to get out there.

Sure bro, i’ll throw in my 2 cents. The reason i went for it is because after doing an internship after my junior year, i felt like any job i would get with a Bachelor’s in EE would be very boring and unfulfilling. Going for a PhD shows people that you have the ability to tackle complex problems in a methodical fashion while also being creative. For instance, in the semiconductor industry, lead designers will almost always have PhDs. Not sure about signal processing but i would assume it’s sort of the same. In terms of financial payoff, an MS will always be the sweet spot. However, if you really want to be an expert in the field and push the boundaries of that field, then a PhD is always the way to go. It comes down to whether or not you are willing to sacrifice earning potential and an easier lifestyle to really pursue your intellectual passions. That was my thought process.

Yes this lines up a lot with my line of reasoning and that's why im seriously thinking of pursuing a phd after my masters for the time being.

Unfortunately my electronics classes were a lot more practical and about learning current trends (working with arduino, plcs, etc) rather than theoretical so I dont really know much about semiconductors other than the basic working principles of all sorts of diodes and transistors so semiconductors isn't my really my field can definition see the appeal of it tho, hope you're having a good time in your phd bro.

It's called an MRes, I think, or MSc in Research for short. It's a research-based MSc, rather than a taught one. I think you normally do two separate research projects, one after the other, and do papers on them both. I'm not sure if it's a meme or not, you'll have to check since I haven't done one.

I heard ChemE work in the lab is pretty low. Some chemistry Lab and then some processess lab but that's it. No more spending 10 hours a day in the lab measuing with the oscilloscope and shit. Should I do the change? Or should i push through and become an EE?

Why? Literal best uni in my country.
Moreover those electronics courses were really fun and helpful, the shit i learned there was what I was expected to know during my internship on an IoT company and its not like it was an arduino course, we used arduino for a ton of stuff but it was mostly electronics. Some of the projects we did: (not in order)

>Build an adc-dac converter
>Build your own power supply
>Build your own function generator
>build a relay array and control something with it
>Build a fully autonomous self driving car
>Build an IoT controller using a rasp pi, a wifi connected arduino and do control and monitoring thru nodered
>A bazillion filters of all kinds

Those are just the ones I can remember, the classes were mostly explaining the projects and what you needed to know, you would then research everything on your own and spend a shit ton of time in the lab building and testing.
We also had a shit ton of official lab practices with the prof were we learned stuff about transistors, diodes, logic gates, flip flops, etc by building and testing circuits and stuff. It was a lot of fun and i learned a lot, but it was completely practical.

Id like to add that this thread has been really nice and comfy with everyone actually engaging in interesting discussion about things EE related whilst you've been a toxic faggot derailing the thread with your retarded superiority garbage.
If you weren't a freshman retard you'd know MEs and EEs work with each other a shit ton of the field and generally have a deep mutual respect for each other's fields as those are generally the forefront of engineering. Please fuck off this thread with your faggotry

Your "observation" is entirely meaningless too, first of all even if you met every single electrical engineer in a 500 mile radius you still couldn't logically assume that electrical engineers are brain dead, second your "observation" can be entirely made up which was the original point of me copy and pasting your paragraph, my third and final point (which is admittedly detached from the first two points) is you're a retard if you think electrical engineers are any more pretentious then other stem majors. Most stem majors think their major is better then others which leads them to be pretentious about it.

I feel you, anon. All I ever do all day at work is just sit and think about circuits and computers and shit. I just sit and think all fucking day long. sometimes I get caught up thinking so hard that I don't even realize it's already 7:30 PM and I've been thinking for 11 hours straight. Other times my boss makes me work overtime just thinking and pondering and pontificating. Honestly, it's a really stressful job to just sit and think about electrons and 1s and 0s all day. My wife left me recently because apparently I spend too much time thinking. She said sometimes I even come home and just think and contemplate too hard and don't pay any attention to her or our kids. One time at work, my boss caught me sleeping, but I managed to get away with it by telling him I didn't notice he was there because I was simply thinking too hard. He actually gave me a raise and awarded me thinker of the month at my office. We actually call it "the thinkery" because we employ some of the best thinkers around. Professionals that have spent their entire lives honing their thinking skills, developing the best ways to think and deliberate and consider. It takes a special kind of person to think and not all are cut out for it.

EE is cool in general, the vast majority of EEs i know do design jobs which is not the fun part at all.
Ill tell you about what i do which i find cool.
I work at an engineering firm and we do safety equipment for industries.(eg creating something so that a factory worker does not get his arm chopped by a huge ass machine) my team is currently divided into 2 design teams one which is in charge of the logic behind the circuits and other in charge of designing them.
I currently work under a mathematician who is the head of my team, the guy has got high academics and his phd was in mathematics for electrical engineering.
We are creating the core functioning of the the whole system.
Im happy to answer any question

Reposting from sqt

What is the definition of phase in the electrical sense? I can’t articulate the difference between split-phase, which I understand is a single phase system, and a two phase system with phases 180 degrees apart other than by appealing to the number of transformers used.

Yea in power systems. The different context thing is confusing. I know how it’s used in signal processing at least, but it doesn’t seem to apply here. It’s as if they’re in reference to separate entities rather than descriptions of signals. For example home power gets single phase and commercial/industrial usually gets three phase. I know true two phase in the rare places it’s still used has two transformers(or rather two secondaries in a transformer), single phase uses one, and three phase uses three, so there’s at least some objective difference. I just want to know what the term actually describes.
>>11487020
I don’t think the phase actually gets split. Current is moving in a single direction it’s just since the legs are hooked up to opposite ends the voltage they see is opposite in the way one side of a water pump sees a sucking force and the other sees a pushing force. At least that’s my rationale in trying to understand this, maybe someone can correct me?
> two-phase is already two 180 degree signals.
It’s usually 90 degrees in two phase systems. But Wikipedia says split phase Is not two phase because there’s no unique vector of rotation. I don’t think this is right though, at least not sufficiently, since a two phase system with phases 180 degrees apart also shouldn’t create any rotation. I could be wrong on that also I guess.

1. Learn digital logic / hardware (logic, 2s complement, gates, MSI components, sequential logic) if you don't already know it
2. Learn linear circuits and diodes, maybe transistors if you want
3. Buy a microcontroller (Atmel, Microchip, ST, TI, etc, preferably not an Arduino, you need to struggle) and a programmer / a dev board, download the datasheet, build the application circuit / plug it in
4. Start programming it in assembly, then C; make sure to reference the datasheet and assembly reference as much as possible for learning how to configure it, don't just use premade code/drivers/utilities for configuring it, even they're available
5. Learn to use RTC, interrupts, SPI, I2C, UART, DMA, external memory mapping, other peripherals etc. by doing projects. Basically understand how to use the micro at the register level, understand the assembly, and understand how C gets turned into assembly and how to use C language features common to embedded (volatile, function pointers, unions, bit level manipulations, fixed point math and the tradeoffs between it and floating point)
6. Write your own routines. Once you've written 10k+ LoC in assembly and are able to integrate assembly routines with C code you're probably good as far as assembly goes (understand calling conventions)
7. Buy some external hardware (memory, LCD, DAC/ADC, etc.) and figure out how to wire it and interface with it from a micro to do something useful
8. Once you get to this point you can start to use QoL shit like premade code and utilities to generate configurations since you understand what they're doing and how to fix them when they don't work or aren't available
9. Learn how a basic RTOS works and how to build one (context switching, scheduling and priority, concurrency and data structures used for concurrency, interprocess communication)
10. Do some performance intensive applications with limited hardware to get a better idea of the restrictions you're working with (DSP, Video, etc)

read the main books about it, if they're good. Even the first two chapter would do.

Really, I would recommend this with regards to any field. Good books just have a way of deeply motivating students.

Obviously do all the basic stuff, if you don't already know it (logic/minimzation, FFs/latches, adders (CLA/Ripple), multipliers (Looped/Unrolled), state machines, etc.)

Some projects:
Try to make a display driver (it looks like your board has HDMI, I was thinking VGA, but HDMI is okay, use a core if you can't figure it out) and create controller cores that support a protocol like SPI, I2C, etc. that will let you control your display driver. If you have a micro with GPIO or an I2C/SPI peripheral you can connect them and you've basically given the micro a display.
Definitely make a processor, MIPS is probably the easiest, but I've been meaning to look more into RISC-V. You can also create peripherals for your processor if you want and use it to actually do useful things (i.e. interface to external hardware using an assembly program).
Maybe create an encryption core (AES/Simon) that takes an input from a RAM and outputs the ciphertext to another RAM using a custom datapath.

I recommend >>11486457 for computer architecture and Digital Design by John Wakerly for intro to digital logic and design (on libgen)

For VHDL, Free Range VHDL is good but I'd also recommend The Designer's Guide to VHDL once you want to dig deeper into VHDL. I think it's much more important to understand digital design at the schematic level, so make sure you have an understanding of schematic design using SSI and MSI components (helps to not think of writing HDL the same way you would think of software, also gives you a better idea of what your HDL will synthesize to). Make sure to learn the 1 and 2 process models for state machines, for-generate statements, what is and isn't synthesizable, best practices

I would also recommend Sublime Text as an editor for VHDL with the VHDL-Mode package and the SublimeLinter package (needs other packages to use something like ModelSim to lint your code in real-time, helps a lot with speeding up development) (Sigasi also exists, but it's slow)

should just come with the problems in the book?

books on libgen are kind of old, still good?

it's one of those zynq arm + fpga boards cause i asked on /diy/ and some of my ee frens and they suggested it to me
no vga sadly, heard hdmi gets pretty hard with the encryption

Do most of the practice problems and you can check your answers without having to learn VHDL using a schematic editor and simulator. I have more experience with Intel's toolchain so I know Quartus has these, I'm assuming Xilinx does as well, but you can always download Quartus just to do simulations and whatnot if it doesn't.

>books on libgen are kind of old, still good?
Yeah they're good. Fundamentals don't change much and libgen pretty much has every textbook I search for, usually in the latest edition too. Don't download mobi/azw/chm/ebook formats unless you can't find the book in any other format. PDF and DJVU are the best (for textbooks at least).

>it's one of those zynq arm + fpga boards cause i asked on /diy/ and some of my ee frens and they suggested it to me

Yeah that's a pretty beefy FPGA for a beginner and HDMI isn't easy, especially not compared to VGA. It also lacks some of the things I would recommend a starter FPGA should have (more GPIO, 7 segment displays, more switches and buttons, VGA, exposed DACs/ADCs) but has useful stuff for more advanced projects (ethernet, onboard processor, DDR3 memory). You can use it to get started and you can use it for more advanced projects once you get there, but I don't think it's the most convenient FPGA to start learning with.

If you want to solve the fringing fields of a capacitor it requires complex analysis. Also the entirety of filter design is based on residues of poles and zeros on the complex plane

I've never been much interested in electrical engineering until I heard about DIELECTRIC ELASTOMERS and soft robotics.

It's basically two flexible electrodes with an elastic material between them. Supplying a voltage differential between the electrodes cause a contraction of the soft material and an expansion in the perpendicular direction. This is finding new use-cases as the understanding of the materials involved grows and develops.

His circuit books is really good(there are better works, of course), it is the electromag one that sucks. Cheng's field and wave electromagnetics is great, for example.

I like how Balanis deals with auxiliary potential functions and how he uses it for solving waveguide field equations. It is a bit more of an advanced text than Cheng but for anyone interested in a good in depth field analysis book I'd recommend it,
