Electronic Engineering: Designing and Developing the Technology of the Modern World

Abstract

Jeffrey Horowitz*

Electronic engineering is a field of engineering that deals with the design, development and maintenance of electronic circuits and systems. Electronic engineers work on a wide range of projects, from the development of consumer electronics such as smartphones and televisions, to the design of complex systems used in medical devices and aerospace applications. The field of electronic engineering has been around for many decades, with early work in the field dating back to the late 1800s. However, it wasn't until the mid-20th century that electronic engineering really took off, thanks in large part to the invention of the transistor.
