Communications Engineering

Almost two-thirds (63%) of the world’s population have ready access to the internet. An even higher proportion have and use mobile phones. Telecommunications engineering is an engineering discipline building on electrical and computer engineering, among other specialized fields, that enhance telecommunication systems. (Wikipedia). Telecommunication engineers plan, design, build and operate the communications technology that is all around us: in space, under the oceans, in vehicles and aircraft, in our homes and over the air to our mobile devices. Telecommunications technologies process and transmit electrical, optical and radio signals containing the information we and our machines need for our connected world.
