Why no Electronic Engineering sub forum?

The discussion centers on the absence of a dedicated Electronic Engineering sub-forum within the existing Engineering category. Participants suggest that renaming the current Electrical Engineering forum to include "Electronic" could attract more traffic and better serve the community. However, there is skepticism about the demand for a separate sub-forum, as the existing Electrical Engineering forum already covers relevant topics. The consensus leans towards maintaining the current structure unless significant demand for a distinct Electronic Engineering forum is demonstrated. Overall, the need for a new sub-forum is questioned given the existing resources.

Under the Engineering category? I think if it's for the sake of traffic, then may be changing the title to Electrical/Electronic Engineering?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
The relevant thing to take from Zz's links is that we add a sub-forum when there is significant demand for it i.e. we get plentiful threads started on the topic. I'm not sure if the case could be made for electronics engineering.
 
We have an Electrical Engineering forum already. Are you asking that the name be changed to Electrical/Electronic Engineering? I don't see the need to add the word electronic.
