In summary, the conversation is about the speaker's interest in specializing in electronic engineering and their search for more information on the subject. They have checked their institution's documentation and found limited information on microprocessors, software, and computer hardware. They question if this is enough for a degree in electrical engineering or if it is more suited for an electronics technician. The speaker then mentions their curiosity about a Master's degree in electronics.

Can anyone (or everyone) describe to me what electronical engineer can do?
That is one of my options for specialization and I want to know more about it.

Thanks.

Have you checked your institution's documentation and/or syllabus for the specialization?

I did. Couple of sentences about microprocessors, software, computer hardware and that's it.
Is that everything I have to know about electronics?

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.
