<p>darkspy123: No offense, but if you’re advisor doesn’t know about your university’s EP program, then you may want to get more information elsewhere.</p>
<p>I am an EP degree holder, with design courses in EE, and grad work in EE. The problem is that most EE majors don’t know electricity & magnetism very well, nor do they have an understanding of quantum mechanics beyond modern physics. Further, most EEs don’t see a use for thermodynamics as well. All of these topics are very valuable as you do designs in the real world and it pays off. What I didn’t get was engineering economics, sophomore EE labs, and computer architecture. However, my circuit design skills are better than EEs and I understand design limitations and control theory better than my colleagues.</p>
