Electrical Engineering, sometimes referred to as electrical and electronic engineering, is a field of engineering that deals with the study and application of electricity, electronics and electromagnetism. The field first became an identifiable occupation in the late nineteenth century after commercialisation of the electric telegraph and electrical power supply. It now covers a range of subtopics including power, electronics,control systems, signal processing and telecommunications. Electrical Engineering may or may not include electronic engineering. Where a distinction is made, usually outside of the United States, Electrical Engineering is considered to deal with the problems associated with large-scale electrical systems such as power transmission and motor control, whereas Electronic Engieering deals with the study of small-scale electronic systems including computers and integrated circuits. Alternatively, Electrical Engineers are usually concerned with using electricity to transmit energy while electronic engineers are concerned with using electricity to transmit information
