Im interested in doing my undergraduate course in something with regard to Electrical or Electronics. But i paticularly do not understand the difference between the two.
I am more inclined toward electronics but because of the few number of institutes that are offering the courses in elecronics i am beginning to feel that there is not much demand in this field.
The courses i am referring to here are:
1)Electroncs and Electrical
2)Electronics and instrumentation
3)Electronics and telecommunication
4)Electronics
5)Electrical
Which course has the maximum applicability in todays broad ranged market?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Most schools offer an electrical engineering degree and you can focus on electronics when you choose your professional electives.

Could someone please tell me in general what the scope of the Undergraduate level of the following engineering courses.

1]Electronics
2]Electronics and telecommunications
3]Electrical
And lastly
What on Earth is the difference between Electronics and Electrical
 
I find telecommunications by far the most interesting.
