I have an electrical engineering degree, and looking back on it, there's really not much there that you couldn't learn just fine from the Internet -- if the material were readily available, and there were a community of people learning EE online. In order for that to happen, though, EE education would need to get its act together, and change quite a bit.
It's frustrating to see how much better education could be, if only more fields would start using the internet properly.
(Fun fact: I don't have a CS degree, but I'm taking graduate-level CS classes and doing fine. I know that CS it something you can learn well from the internet. I know what it feels like to learn the equivalent of an undergraduate degree online. And EE could be that way, too.)
