One of the basic needs of life is electricity which is generated, transmitted and distributed by electrical and electronic engineers. The necessity of electrical engineers is related with the basic requirements of life.
The development of a country sometimes is measured with the amount of use of electricity. Bangladesh Power Development Board, Dhaka Electric Supply Authority, DESCO are the organizations who are looking for electrical engineers. BTCL. BTV, mobile operators and other private TV channels are also looking for the same.
Electrical Engineers can specialize as telecom engineers, IT professionals, computer engineers, programmers etc. at an ease. The demand of electrical engineers begins at the dawn of civilization and continues as long as universe survives. The electronics industry is also developing in the country at a rapid pace.
The electronic engineers can meet the demand of electronics industry. Bangladesh being an Asian country can follow the foot steps of China, Malaysia, Taiwan, Korea and can become a supplier of electronic products with the contribution from electronic engineers. Electrical and electronic engineers are also demanded abroad very much
