computer science & information technology?
ComputerScience isthe study of engineering and principles involved in the engineering, design, development, integration and testing of computer systems at all levels (my first base course was in Machine Code programming about 25 years ago). This includes applied areas of Math and Science, Materials Engineering, Electrical and Electronics theory and Engineering, and Programming fundamentals. Information Technology is the more about the study of the use of computers to solve human/business problems. You study some programming, databases, applications, etc. |
civil engineering technology?
The civil engineer holds the safety, health, and welfare of the public paramount. Civil engineering projects and systems should conform to governmental regulations and statutes; should be built economically to function properly with a minimum of maintenance and repair while withstanding anticipated usage and weather; and should conserve energy and allow hazard-free construction while providing healthful, safe, and environmentally sound utilization by society. Civil engineers play a major role in developing workable solutions to construct, renovate, repair, maintain, and upgrade infrastructure. The infrastructure includes roads, mass transit, railroads, bridges, airports, storage buildings, terminals, communication and control towers, water supply and treatment systems, storm water control systems, wastewater collection, treatment and disposal systems, as well as living and working areas, recreational buildings

History of electronic engineering
The modern discipline of electronic engineering was to a large extent born out of radio and television development and from the large amount of Second World War development of defence systems and weapons. In the interwar years, the subject was known as radio engineering and it was only in the late 1950s that the term electronic engineering started to emerge. In the UK, the subject of electronic engineering became distinct from electrical engineering as a university degree subject around 1960. Students of electronics and related subjects like radio and telecommunications before this time had to enroll in the electrical engineering department of the university as no university had departments of electronics. Electrical engineering was the nearest subject with which electronic engineering could be aligned, although the similarities in subjects covered (except mathematics and electromagnetism) lasted only for the first year of the three-year course. |
difference between electrical engineering & electronics engineering?Electrical engineering deals with ALL aspects of electrical things, from power generation & transmission, to superconductors. In a nutshell, electrical engineers work on power distribution, electrical controls in factories, motors & their control, transformers, and things like the electrical requirements for a new mall (just to mention a few of the many areas of EE). |
Mechanical Engineering? Mechanical Engineering is an engineering discipline that involves the application of principles of physics for analysis, design , manufacturing , and maintenance of mechanical systems . Mechanical engineering is one of the broadest engineering disciplines.Mechanical engineers design and build engines and power plants ... ...structures and vehicles of all sizes... It requires a solid understanding of core concepts including mechanics , kinematics , thermodynamics , fluid mechanics and energy . Mechanical engineers use the core principles as well as other knowledge in the field to design and analyze motor vehicles, aircraft , heating and cooling systems , watercraft , manufacturing plants , industrial equipment and machinery, robotics , medical devices and more. |
Electric Power engineering? Power engineering , also called power systems engineering , is a subfield of electrical engineering that deals with the generation , transmission and distribution of electric power as well as the electrical devices connected to such systems including generators , motors and transformers . Although much of the field is concerned with the problems of three-phase AC power - the standard for large-scale power transmission and distribution across the modern world - a significant fraction of the field is concerned with the conversion between AC and DC power as well as the development of specialised power systems such as those used in aircraft or for electric railway networks.
