Electronics Engineering is one of the largest and fastest
growing industries. It covers a wide range of applications
we use daily and which make our life easier and enjoyable
such as Television, Radio, computers, telecommunication etc.
They helps us to see, hear and communicate over vast
distances and do things faster. Electronics has a
major role in improving productivity in industries like oil,
energy, agriculture and so many other important sectors of
economy. In steel, petroleum and chemical industries it is
the electronic devices that direct, control and test
production processes. Health care industry depend on
electronic instruments to perform chemical tests and to
check body functions. The safety in transportation,
factories and mines and in homes rely heavily on
electronics. The uses are endless.
An Electronics engineer must find new solutions to the
practical problems affecting our daily lives. An electronics
engineer will work in team with other specialists to design,
fabricate, produce, test and supervise the manufacture
of complex products and systems i.e electronic equipments
and components for a number of industries including
hospitals, computer industry, electronic data processing
systems for communication and in defense etc. They supervise
production and manufacturing processes and oversee
installation and maintenance. Electronics engineers work
with devices that use extremely small amounts of power. They
work with microprocessors, fibre optics, and in
telecommunication, television, radio etc.
Electronics engineering is a constantly changing and
widening branch of the engineering profession. Electronics
industry being a labour intensive industry provides many job
opportunities for the skilled job seekers. Increased
production and demand by government and businesses for
communication equipment, computers and military electronics
along with consumer demand and increased research and
development on robots and other types of automation
contributes to the growth of employment opportunities in the
field. Candidates having a creative and inventive mind and
also are good at physics and mathematics will probably find
electronics engineering a challenging and lucrative
career.
