The discussion centers on the challenges of transferring from an EET program to an EE program for a bachelor's degree. The participant expresses a newfound enjoyment in their EET studies, particularly with MCUs and FPGAs, but is concerned about potential salary differences between EET and EE graduates. They seek advice on the transferability of their AAS credits to a BS in Electrical Engineering. Responses indicate that while Engineering Technology courses may not transfer easily, there are pathways available if advanced Math and Physics courses are completed. Consulting an academic advisor is strongly recommended to clarify transfer options and requirements.

*I posted this in the EE forums... whoops :-p*

Hey everyone!

I've been going to a school for EET and I've been doing pretty well so far. Something clicked for me this semester and I started to enjoy the program more and the challenges it presents. I have to say, I love working with MCUs and FPGAs; however, I do love my other course as well.

Recently, someone told me that usually EET majors make less than EE majors and my question is this:

How easy it would be to transfer my AAS credits in EET to an EE program for a BS. These are the classes I'll have taken after I get my AAS http://www.morrisville.edu/Academics...ml/courses.htm .

I guess I could wait until Monday to ask my teachers, but I really need to know now haha.

Thanks everyone!

To my understanding, Engineering Technology courses don't transfer well into a true engineering degree. However, the following quote was found on your school's website: "It is possible to transfer into BSEE programs if the student is able to take advanced Math and Physics while at SUNY Morrisville and special transfer arrangements are made."

Talk to your advisor and find out what needs to be done asap. You may end up going into the Engineering Science program if you haven't gone too far in the EET program.
 
Honestly I didn't see any courses that really struck me as typical EE courses (Though I have no idea what electrical theory is), but of course the gen ed stuff like technical communications and calc will transfer if you decided to go the EE route.
 
TL;DR: Jackson or Zangwill for Electrodynamics? Hi, I want to learn ultrafast optics and I am interested in condensed matter physics, ie using ultrafast optics in condensed matter systems. However, before I get onto ultrafast optics I need to improve my electrodynamics knowledge. Should I study Jackson or Zangwill for Electrodynamics? My level at the moment is Griffiths. Given my interest in ultrafast optics in condensed matter, I am not sure which book is better suited for me. If...
