What is the difference between following engineering branches?

[JorgeWhite]

 

1. Computer Science and IT

2. E&C and EEE and Electronics&Instrumentation

3. Mechanical and Civil and B. arch(though this is not an engineering branch)

Please also tell about these branches according to their scope in future.

2. E&C and EEE and Electronics&Instrumentation

 

What's E&C ? electrical and communication, or electronics and computer ?

 

The usual course for electrical engineers is EEE, electrical and electronics engineering. which can probably cover many jobs.

I think all the courses have many similar subjects or modules and branches out with a couple of special subjects. Some subjects are more in-depth.

 

electrical and communication might be geared to some industries. Like telecommunications, operating satelite base stations or splicing fiber optics cables. and you might do jobs like networking, video linking , make devices at the factories, and such...maybe sound engineer who owns studios..

 

Electronics &Instrumentation, I think some jobs requires them, like power plants or energy companies. They are needed to maintain some Scada systems or something. and probably airline industry, or other utility companies. maybe even oil refineries or oil platforms, or chemical factories. but can apply for other jobs too.

 

The jobs in electrical and electronics are varied. There are needs in biomedical as there are electronics in medical equipments, and is often linked to computers. Engineers and technicians are needed in the navies and airforces to work on the high tech weapons. There are demand in consumer products, so we make them at the factories. If there is semiconductor manufacturing around, they are needed to work on some silicon material , IC chip designing, and many jobs are in automation, in manufacturing. The cars and public transports have electronics device too. Robotics may need electronics and mechanical and is called mechatronics.
