      Frequently Asked Questions

      A. General


      1 1. What is Engineer?

      An engineer is a professional who creates solutions to real problems by utilizing scientific knowledge. In addition, engineers use their creativity to develop economical solutions and they should be sensitive to the environment. Generally, engineers do group work while working on different problems.

      Engineers work in different fields such as research and development, design, production, operation and maintenance, and marketing. They develop materials, devices, system or process.

      2 2. What is the difference between Electrical Engineering and Electronics Engineering?

      After the invention of the transistor, devices that operate with lower voltages and consume less current began to be made, and the field of electronics emerged. According to the generally accepted definition, the field dealing with low voltage and low current is called electronic engineering. In this context, computer, telecommunications, and microwave are the disciplines in close relations with electronics.

      Electrical Engineering is the branch dealing with “heavy current”—that is, electric light and power systems and apparatuses. In this context, studies on energy generation and distribution, electrical machines are considered within electrical engineering.

      3 3. Why Electrical and Electronics Enineering?

      Your personality and skills are naturally the most important factor in choosing a profession. They generally determine a profession group, and the effects of that profession on one's life become important. The person progresses in his career, the level of income increases as his career progresses. As a result, a correctly and appropriately chosen profession creates a positive relationship between the financial and moral satisfaction that the person gives to the institution he works for and the financial and moral satisfaction he receives, which affect each other positively. In choosing a profession, it is important to examine the general situation of the sector, employment opportunities, general wage level and how the related sector will develop in the coming years.

      Electrical and Electronics Engineers have been the most sought-after profession group both in our country and in the world for many years. According to the data of “Elektronik Sanayi Almanağı 2011” (https://www.tesid.org.tr/tsd/belge/tesid_tur2011.pdf) prepared by the Turkish Electronics Industrialists Association (TESID), in our country, the production revenue in electronics industry was valued at $11.3 billion in 2010. In the same year, 45,000 people were employed in the electronics industry. Imports were $14.5 billion and exports were $5.5 billion in 2010. In the field of engineering and services related to the sector, a business volume of $18 billion and employment for 100,000 people was created. Research and development (R&D) expenditures in the electronics sector in 2010 were approximately $225 million, and its ratio to total turnover is 2%. Considering that this rate is around 0.8% in Turkey, it becomes clear that R&D studies are important in electronics industry.

      Total production in the electrical power generation sector is around $15 billion. It is clear that energy production will mainly shift to renewable energy sources in the coming years, and electrical engineers will take a more active role in these systems. In addition, the need for electrical engineers and control engineers will increase in the manufacturing industry and other sectors that use electrical machines and try to increase their efficiency with smart control systems.

      According to statistics from the US Employment Agency, there are 291,000 electrical and electronics engineers employed in the US. This number corresponds to 19.4% of approximately 1.5 million engineers. The ratio of electrical and electronics engineers who found employment among total engineers is very high. It has also been reported that electrical and electronics engineers are hired in almost every sector. Job opportunities for Electronics Engineers will increase by 4% between 2006 and 2016. In this context, job opportunities will increase in sub-fields such as mobile phone transmitters in service-providing sectors. Job opportunities for Electrical Engineers will grow by 6% between 2006-2016. In this context, there will be more job demand in the fields of energy production, high-capacity energy batteries and their management, navigation systems. An interesting report on Electrical and Electronics Engineering in the USA can be found at https://www.careercornerstone.org/pdf/ee/eleceng.pdf. You can find some statistics on electrical and electronics engineers in our country at https://www.emo.org.tr/emo_hakkinda/istatistikler/rapor0.php.

      Choosing electrical and electronics engineering instead of another engineering field will increase your chances of finding a job and working in better workplace environment once you graduate successfully.
