现代文明几乎没有任何方面不依赖电能。电气工程师考虑发电，输电和发电，以及利用可再生能源和可持续能源。电子工程师负责现代数字，电子和通信系统的设计和应用。在本专业中，电气和电子工程被一起考虑，因为这种结合反映了这些领域的融合，因为社会正在寻求更有效，安全，可靠和环保的工程问题解决方案。电气与电子工程专业将为其他学科的学生提供电气与电子工程特定领域的内容知识。
There is hardly any aspect of modern civilisation that is not dependent upon electrical energy. Electrical Engineers consider generation, transmission and generation of electricity, as well as the harnessing of sources of renewable and sustainable energy. Electronic Engineers undertake the design and application of modern digital, electronic and communication systems.<br><br>In this specialisation Electrical and Electronic Engineering is considered together as the combination reflects the convergence of these fields as society seeks more efficient, safe, reliable, and environmentally friendly solutions to engineering problems.<br><br>This specialisation in Electrical and Electronic Engineering will provide students, from other discipline areas, content knowledge in areas specific to Electrical and Electronic Engineering.<br><br>Our world is characterised by the ever-increasing number of intelligent devices that have embedded computers. The electronics and communication fields represent two of the fastest growing technology areas in the world. With the rapid progress of information technology, the role of communications is becoming even more crucial for increasing industry efficiency and competition. Electrical Power Engineers consider generation, transmission and generation of electricity, as well as the harnessing of sources of renewable and sustainable energy. Electronic Engineers undertake the design and application of modern digital, electronic and communication systems.
