I've seen PhDs in Electrical Engineering who couldn't repair a television. Somehow they missed that class.
- dsharlet 11y agoElectrical engineering is a pretty wide field that doesn't necessarily involve working with actual electronics. Personally, I've built a circuit simulator software package, but I can't actually design or build circuits worth a damn. I had to copy all but the most basic test circuits for my project off of existing designs, and I'd probably fail to build a physical realization of most of them.
