<p>The difference between Electrical Communications, Electrical engineering, Electrical Engineering Technology.</p>
<p>If i dont get into a 4 year school, should i go for the two other majors? and then transfer? Or just go about with Liberal arts? and then chose my own courses that would lead me towards a 4 year electrical engineering degree.</p>
<p>Liberal Arts is not the way to go. If you want to do engineering you need to know right away. Due to mostly to the classes engineering students take the first two years that provide a solid foundation in mathematics and sciences that will play a big role in solving engineering problems.
During the first two years you should be taking </p>
<p>2 freshman english courses
General chemistry 1&2
Calculus 1,2 (3 if your school splits them up that way)
differntial equations
linear algebra
introduction to computer systems
advanced physics 1&2
engineering design (introduction to cad)
intro to thermodynamics
intro to electrical engineering</p>
<p>These are requirements for most schools. Of course they may differ. All those courses should be done in the first two years plus 3 or 4 elective courses. </p>
<p>First off, check out the senior college you would like to attend and find out if they will transfer courses and credits from the community college (very important step.) </p>
<p>I would speak to a counselor at the school you plan on attending and inform them of your future goals. They would know best.</p>
<p>There's a big difference between Electrical Engineering and Electrical Engineering Technology (which is very similar to Electronics Technology). The Electrical Engineering degree is much more rigorus and grounded into the math and sciences. This would lead to careers as an engineer. The EET degree is much more practical and would lead to careers as a "technician" and not an engineer. If you are good at math you should go for engineering. If you don't do well you can always fall back to EET.</p>
