About Electronics Degree
A bachelor’s degree in engineering is required for almost all entry-level engineering jobs. Most engineering
degrees are granted in electrical, electronics, mechanical, or civil engineering. However, engineers trained
in one branch may work in related branches. Electronics engineers design, develop, test, and supervise the
manufacture of electronic equipment such as broadcast and communications systems. Electronics engineers
specialize in areas such as communications, signal processing, and control systems or have a specialty
within one of these areas—industrial robot control systems or aviation electronics, for example. Engineers
in high-technology areas, such as advanced electronics or information technology, may find that technical
knowledge can become outdated rapidly. By keeping current in their field, engineers are able to deliver the
best solutions and greatest value to their employers.
Scope for an Electronics Engineer
Although rising demand for electronic goods—including advanced communications equipment, defense-related
electronic equipment, medical electronics, and consumer products—should continue to increase employment,
foreign competition in electronic products development and the use of engineering services performed in
other countries will act to limit employment growth. Engineers may advance to become technical specialists
or to supervise a staff or team of engineers and technicians. Some may eventually become engineering managers
or enter other managerial or sales jobs.
