Electrical engineering encompasses a broad range of subdisciplines included electronics, RF, controls, signal processing, instrumentation, power, and much more. This video covers a quick overview of those fields and then goes into the electrical engineering undergrad curriculum you can expect. Note that all schools are a little different so don't take this as a guarantee, but hopefully this gives a good overview of what to expect.

Hey everyone, yes I have done many videos on EE but the one's on "why is EE a difficult major" have seemed to scare some people in terms of the major which is never the intention of these videos. Tried a different delivery with this one to replace those, hope this gives a good overview of just what to expect. For those just coming across the channel there are many more videos on EE as I mention at this end of this video that you can find in the description. Hope you enjoy!

I start my engineering classes in the fall, I heard that the beginning ones are not so bad but I'll also be taking calc 2 in the fall, I've heard some horrible things about calculus 2, any tips?
@zachstar
@zachstar 6 жыл бұрын
Calc 2 is definitely a tough one. Do LOTS of practice problems. You’re gonna learn things like integration techniques but you HAVE to do lots of problems to see the full picture of how and when to do each one. You can know each technique and be totally stuck on a problem that involves it because there’s often little tricks you need to be aware of.

This is the kind of information that a typical high school kid would need when they inevitably ask the question. 'Why are we studying this stuff'? If a teacher can then go into to this and answer questions while doing it. That is a real teacher. Most teachers actually don't know the answer.

It's simple. Cause if you do not learn how to diagnose and or fix these systems . You will get ripped off at every shop. Only to find out that 99% of shops have no idea how an electrical system on a car or boat or even a semi works. 99% of dealers and mechanics know how to change oil. But take your car or boat or evan your motorcycle to the dealer for a no start situation. Unless you know how to diagnose or fix it. You are screwed. I found this out the hard way with my no start situation if the vessle or vehicle needs anything more than a battery replacement forget it. It will sit there untill you come pick it up with a tow truck. 99% of mechanics have no idea how an electrical circuit works in any vehicle. There for unless you can diagnose and fix your own no start you will be walking or taking the bus. Or worse yet you will be that idiot in a parking lot trying to get your car to start. And you will fail unless you learn.

Studying may suck at times but in between our dreams and success, there's surely a lot of midnight studying and coffee breaks that's going to happen. Most of the people reading this are probably waiting for an exam to happen as well. This pandemic surely has caused others to loose their motivation. Some have lost that exam vibe and it's quite difficult to bring back our old self - the one who was always motivated to study every day. You won't always be motivated but you can be determined to keep going no matter how hard it gets. Hard work will never disappoint you because every second of it is going to pay off. One day, we will all be taking that exam that we have been preparing for. For now, let us focus on our goals. Keep studying and be consistent. That license is waiting for you! ❤️

I'm a fourth-year undergraduate Electrical and Computer Engineering student and I really wished I had this video when I started at my University or when applying for majors at my college. This video is honestly a really great overview of what was to come. Having done all these courses already, I can see the bigger picture now. But at the time of starting out, I often questioned why I was taking these courses, other than we had to. Your video is still really helpful, even now, since job interviews are coming up and I've forgotten some of the material that I am supposed to know.

You Zach Star have got the best engineering degree overviews on KZbin that I've seen by far. I really love how you break everything down in such simply terms and it is really giving me a lot of insight on what I should do in life. With that being said I'm still a little hung up on whether I should do Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering. That right now is my biggest toss up with what major I should go with. At first I was leaning on the Computer Engineering side. However, this video is really making me lean towards the Electrical Engineering side. So I guess I need at least one more video on the types of classes that Computer Engineers take and if I see that then maybe I will be able to make a decision.

Having programming knowledge is imperative as it complements your skills with embedded systems, signal processing, controls, and many other engineering disciplines. EE and computer science are actually much more related than people think, I actually double majored in them because they overlapped enough.

I'm studying Electrical Engineering and plan on working for a year or two then getting my PhD in Applied Physics. I wanted to ask you if you could do a video on undergraduate research?

I see many back to Uni at different age. I am 40 with a BSc and MA in Business, with my own company but I start EE in BSc in couple of days! Exciting and scary in the same time. Some years ago I swore I would not be back to uni anymore... and here I go!! EE is the only engineering field where you dont need drawing skills. I have none! Engineers are cool - they make the world go forward!

@zachstar Your videos have given me great insight into each engineering branch and it's cons and pros. It took me a lot of time to pick between mechanical and electrical engineering, I'm a bit more than halfway done with Mech Eng and couldn't be happier. But I still am very interested in electrical engineering and it's systems implementations. I'm going to take electromechanical systems FEA as electives. That will help me dip my toes in it. But I am debating if I should get a masters in Mechatronics or go back in a few years to get an electrical engineering degree as well. I have looked everywhere and asked some advisors and professors about this, did not get much insight into my dilemma, and decided to come here to ask your opinion. What would you say is the best approach?

Again man, love your videos, especially this one since I'm an EE student haha. Just wanted to throw out some ideas for future videos. I realize that I can't remember every video you've done so I may repeat something you've already covered. Fair warning, I put down a decent amount but I love your content and the way you present topics so I know they would be great. 1. Undergraduate Research, including research in related but different fields from your major and how to get accepted for it. 2. I would LOVE for you to do a video on Game Theory and Probability and Statistics and their importance in fields of Engineering, Physics, and other domains of science. It's something I'm trying to learn the basics of on my own and is unbelievably important and relevant in every branch of society. 3. Another video on Artificial Intelligence and some of the specific problems like the alignment problem. 4. Maybe some tips on getting into Grad school, specifically, can an Engineer study physics in grad school and vice versa? 5. The emerging and increasing importance of programming and computer science across many fields of science and how you can learn some of that stuff on your own. 6. Maybe a video on Quantum Computing and what you might study to work in that field? 7. Plasma Physics, specifically what you need to study to work on Nuclear Fusion research. 8. Genetics, specifically with a view to working in research areas like CRISPR. 9. Economics. 10. Cognitive Science. 11. Nuclear Physics and Engineering. (Can't remember if you've done a video on this one or not.) Ok that's all I can think of haha. Thanks again for the content.

Hi. Years ago, in 1994, in my Junior year of high school, solar energy sparked my interests and I competed in the General Science category of the 16th annual Plainfield High School district wide Science Fair, and won the first place prize because of the execution and inquisition of my mock solar energy project. Fast forward to today, after paying off my debts to two colleges I attended in my city, I'll have the clearance to return to college & complete my studies in math, going successfully as far as Calculus III, but losing patience and focus in my studies due to a lack of discipline. Change, however, is the 1 constant in life, & within the last decade, I've been reinvigorated in graduating with a Bachelors degree. Preferably in Engineering, now after THIS video, ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING, learning if & how I can aid humanity by developing skills dealing with the Solar Power sector of technology. As a humble returning collegiate student, I NOW possess the discipline, desire, the drive, priority, and dedication to match the ability to see this serious work to completion. So? What courses must I prioritize and what must I consider (besides a relocation to California) to pursue a career in Electrical Engineering?
