Several possible technical elective course groupings are listed below, as an aid in choosing technical electives. Electrical engineering students do not need to follow any particular grouping – the listings described below are provided as a guide only. In the long term, students will be better prepared for an engineering career having a broad exposure to different technical area, rather than a narrow focus in one specialized area.

Some information concerning technical specialties within electrical engineering, and general information about electrical engineering, can be found on the undergraduate major or graduate degree pages.
