Why study Communication Engineering?
|
|
 |
Humans can exist without electronics and/or computers, but not without communication. In today’s globalized economy, organizations and nations with a better communications infrastructure succeed and prosper. Cell-phones, symbolizing wireless communication, have become a modern necessity. In addition, wireless, networking, optical and other communications technologies are currently contained in almost every electronic product. This makes a knowledge and understanding of principles of communication engineering a must rather than an option for every EEE student. |
