Much of society's technological progress has come through electrical and microelectronic engineering. Electrical and microelectronic engineers synthesize science, technology and common-sense design into consumer products, electronic components, microchips, computers, signal processing, power systems, microwaves, telecommunications, robotics, transportation systems and more. From technology development to technology application, the innovations of electrical engineers are shaping the future. With a shortage of electrical engineering talent in the job market, it's a great time for new graduates to launch their careers.
