Berkeley EECS Grad Covers Electrical Engineering Field for Prospective EE students

- I provide a whirlwind tour of topics and potential courses in electrical engineering for prospective students and anyone else curious about EE. This is mainly based on my college experience at Berkeley’s EECS program and a little at Stanford EE (my grad school), though the knowledge should apply to any school. My goal in this particular video is to give viewers the big picture of EE and introduce some sample topics in some of these fields. This was not meant to cover every concept ever or explain things too much in detail. (We would need future videos or semester long courses for that). I wanted this to be short (and hopefully sweet).
Despite how this video turns out :), it was challenging to make. I hope this is useful for some of you folks out there.

That's an amazing summarisation of most of the EE fields. Thanks for such a nice video!
Thanks! Glad this was useful.
Thanks for laying this out so clearly. Idk why every CoE major doesn't have a presentation like this!
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Haha this makes me excited about EE again. Decided to go into CS for university but had my university offered computer engineering I would have probably gone for that.
These days I'm writing my Bachelor thesis on RISC-V and FPGA design which is super interesting.
Cool! Yea RISC and FPGA are super useful and important!
Video starts at 1:45. Great content
Don't forget power systems! It's a field that's regaining attention with all the work to be done in the integration of renewables and smart grids!
You are right! I included "power electronics" in the final slide but didn't get a chance to talk about them. But yes, power electronics and power systems are a very important subject, and are fields of high demand in many large companies.
Great video. I am looking to get into RF. Can you make a video on RF & Antennas?
Haha it's been a while since I've studied RF, but given some time I can probably refresh and make a video in the future covering some basics in RF and antennas. Thanks for the video suggestion!
Great work ..
Thanks!
Hey Jonathon! Great work man
I wonder jon if I want to focus more on computer science and in future I want to go to field of programming, AI and software engineering what should I opt for? CS from L&S or EECS from Engineering?
Thanks! Hmm, there are probably others that may know the difference better than me. I guess if you're already in the engineering school, you might as well stick with CS in EECS. Other than that, maybe the requirements are a little different, but you can specialize and do what you need to do regardless of which school you go (in my humble opinion).
Thanks very helpful
Glad to hear thanks!
I’ve been looking at the EECS Berkeley Guide for a few months now, so it’s only natural I landed on this video. Namaste from an Indian 🙏🏻
I appreciated immensely how you split the paths early in the video. That’s pretty much my thinking, but I’d be grateful if you’d confirm for me:
Given the many choices in lower & upper divisions EECS courses, could one forge a path such that Verilog & hardware descriptions languages are completely bypassed? In other words, one concentrates on either the analog domain or exclusively the digital one?
Yes it is possible. I myself didn't have too much digital background as an undergraduate, and mainly did analog. Some other schools, however, may require you to take both just to give some exposure. It might not be too bad of an idea to take some intro courses in both to get a flavor of what things are like. Thanks for stopping by.
@@bonchonjonjon Appreciate the response.
I personally spent a year at Berkeley Ext. and a semester at Berkeley Ext.'s equivalent at MIT. And I find it amusing how two schools at the top of their game, with students who too are at the top of their games, approach EECS differently. I mean in terms of the wider exposure to digital+analog domains.
Would that interest you at all to come speak on my vlog someday?
Thx !
I need this
Thanks
Sure. Glad this was useful!
Great video. I am interested in Semiconductors, more specifically the process side of things, and I am having a hard time finding classes directly related to what I like at my current school. I did found, here in TH-cam, a professor that taught Micro and Nano fabrication and put up all his lectures for free. Far more useful than any class I've taken at school so far lol.
Yea, it's nice that there are so many great open source material for all of these specialized topics! Thanks for watching
Hey which channel are thy on?
Great video! I am very Interested in mechatronics, is it possible to study embedded systems in an introductory course at the beginning of an EE PhD program?
Definitely. I don't there should be any restrictions by the school stopping you from taking, for instance, an intro undergraduate course that you are completely new to. I have sat in a few intro intro courses myself during the beginning of my PhD program.
thx!
Of course. Thanks for watching!
What is the duration of eecs degree in btech/ms
Thank you for the insightful video! What is a good workload per semester for eecs at berkeley?
I'm glad you enjoyed it. It depends on the student and also the courses. When I was a student, I think the rule of thumb was maybe two or three technical classes and maybe another non-tech course to hit the unit requirement. Four or more tech classes can be kind of tough. Again, it does vary on the classes and the student's background.
no subjects on eletrical machines and power systems
I think I’m a fan
Haha thanks!
Is eecs better than cs in term of package
Where is power distribution ,high voltage engineering,fault measurements ,Machines and Electrical drives .
Power is definitely an important one. EE is a huge field!
Hello brother,
I have done master in electronics engineering and my area of research was TFET I have some publications on it.
I have used silvaco tcad for modelling TFET for low power design,I have little idea about synopsis tcad also which is quite tough,I have taken some good course on analog and digital circuits also interested in semiconductor phsics.
On the other hand if you talk about signal and system i have good command (mostly on complex numerical problem)and done fourier transform simulation using Matlab and python.
Due to exponential rise of AI,It is very necessary to have idea of machine learning and computer area.
I want to pursue phd in electrical engineering from georgiatech but literally confused on which side should I move any idea how to identify correct approach?
I have question to you
If i have good command on few ee subjects like semiconductors,analog,digital design,verilog,computer architecture,microprocessor.
Will this be enough for survival of phd student in georgiatech? because my further research theme is still not cleared.
Will every students are better than me in phd?
Actually i want to know basic prerequisites that are required for phd(EE) in usa universities?
Hello, I think you don't have to worry too much on knowing every single subject in EE. No one does, since it's too large. Especially in grad school, you will likely be focused on a narrow topic anyway. Just focus on a few things that you enjoy and go from there. Hope this helps.
Which type of courses/area I choose in ee for quantum computing????
Hmm, I don't believe there is a quantum computing course in the EE dept at the schools I've attended. I think Stanford has an applied quantum mechanics course but that was it. In my opinion, if you're trying to do quantum computing, I think first and foremost, you need to be very strong at physics. I recommend you check out the physics dept at your school, and maybe your CS dept. Quantum computing is such a specialized topic, I don't personally know too many people who work on it!
@@bonchonjonjon thanks(from India)..... Great video.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!
what is the best field in EECS UCB?
I think UCB is generally strong in most fields within EECS. I like RF and signal processing, but of course I'm biased ;)
Power?
Yea haha. I didn't get a chance to talk about it, though I did include it in the slide at the end. But you are right, power is a huge and important field in EE.
Don't you study electrical machines, power system and drives????
Ah good catch. Yep power systems is a huge, important field.
No EE. Only CS for undergrad if on visa without green card. That's from my personal experience.
RF is the best field. No I’m definitely not biased
I believe so too, and I too am definitely not biased ;)
Hey jon , It’s a helpful video for me. I need more details about EE MS programs at university california berkeley. May i have your mail id or something??? I can’t find u on Instagram.
