/eeg/ - Electrical Engineering General

>But wouldn't that just make me overqualified for, like, every job in existence? Sounds like a meme option to me, as it would require a lot of work, time and dedication, and the payoff isn't that clear for me.
Wanted to address this too. Mere school classes won't make you "overqualified" for any high paying job in the field, even if you have 3 majors and a 4.000 GPA.

The payoff is the freedom to choose the job or grad school that YOU want because you got many offers. Instead of being forced to work for whoever will take you at the end of 4 years of minimizing work, time and dedication.

>meme option
The biggest meme option is to choose to avoid difficulty. After all, that's what the majority of people do.
A smaller but still quite popular meme is to choose a hard course but then not put in any effort and blow it off.
Choosing difficulty and then actually executing isn't a meme at all.

>Physics vs Electrical Engineering
Why not both?
>Double bachelors in it and physics

>Power electricity, Electromecanics, Telecommunications, signal processing and wave applications (i dunno how do you call that in english, basically it's making antennas) are specializations where you're not (only) "making circuits".

Which of these ones deals the least with circuits?

How are the fields of analog/RF, antennas/electromagnetics, and photonics? Plan on studying one of these for my masters (maybe phd afterwards) and enjoy them all enough to be ready to study them. Which would be less coding intensive for actual jobs and which has better job market?

the more diverse the classes are the better it looks when you list it on your resume

I saw some Facebook video of an oscilloscope displaying gameplay of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.

How did they do it? Probably an EE did it. Do you really learn to do cool shit like that?

Brainlet here

How high of voltage can I get out of microwave transformers connected in series before they fry?

If you get really interested and keep on learning stuff after classes

Why? Do you hate circuits?

Read the datasheet. Max input power will usually be less than a few watts.
