Electrical Engineering is a Bachelors of Science program at Georgia Tech, falling under the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering and within the College of Engineering. It is a discipline of engineering dedicated to the study, design, and application of any device that uses electricity or electromagnetism. Electrical engineering is a remarkably broad field. Career paths exist in controls engineering, power engineering, microelectronics engineering, and signal processing. Exposure to concepts in computer science can also prepare electrical engineers for work more loosely connected to the field.
