AI Thread Summary
An electrical engineering specialization encompasses a broad range of topics, including microprocessors, software development, and computer hardware. However, the coursework mentioned may not be sufficient for a comprehensive understanding of the field, especially for a Master's degree. The discussion highlights the importance of reviewing institutional documentation and syllabi to grasp the full scope of the program. There is a distinction between the depth of study required for an Electrical Engineering degree versus that of an Electronics Technician. The conversation emphasizes the need for a more extensive curriculum to adequately prepare for a career in electronics engineering.

That's not enough coursework for an Electrical Engineering degree. Is it for Electronics Technician? How many years long is the program?
 
On this topic is about Master's degree in electronics (any field).
I'm really curious on this one.
