Basically for your own knowledge the difference between an Electronic and Electrical engineer is that, Electronic engineers deal more with micro processor programming. Electrical Engineers are involved in PLC programming as well as C++ programming. They both cover electrical principles maths etc. Thats the difference. If you want to be doing more robotic controll then i suggest you to look at Mechatronic Engineering.
If I recall, audio engineering isn’t really engineering per se that they do not study lots of math and physics. EEs can study how to design and build devices used for audio engineers such as amplifiers, mixers, mics etc.
Normally C code is used for control systems (robotics). Computer engineers do both software programming and electrical engineering… does that answer your question?I’m a EE, and almost all subareas require some programming whether its solving some algorithm, inputs to a forumla, testing, or simulations. Control systems usually involving some PLC that requires coding in order to run a motor. Maybe thats what you are thinking about?
I do electrical engineering, and yes we learn about all the things you said. Don’t do computer science just for the programming, there’s plenty of that in EE if you want!
i have a question when they say it is rapidy changing what does that mean, like every year or so u have to go back to school, or do people at work teach you?
WHy did I choose this major…now I want to change it. I have never been good in math.Any recommendations?
wuts the difference btwn,,an ee,,and mechanical engineere…and biomedical engineere as well??
Do electrical engineers get their own offices?

Yeah, computer engineering is a cross between computer science/software engineering and electrical engineering.

dude robotics is for mechatronics mechanical engineering
