How would you self teach yourself electrical engineering. Learning Electrical Engineering by yourself is much better than going to school, because you can choose the books and style of learning that you want.

How would you self teach yourself electrical engineering

The most difficult part is finding out what works for you. I taught myself electrical engineering and now work in a firm as an electrical designer, and I am now on my way to getting my PE License. For me the most difficult part was teaching myself the mathematics and physics. It took me a long time to find the right way to learn these subjects on my own, but once I figured it out, I flew through the learning process, and was able to get my first job.

I used these 2 books: Engineering Mathematics, and Advanced Engineering Mathematics by K.A. Now you have to learn how to apply your new found mathematical skills, which really you can do anything with, but since you want to go into Electrical Engineering I advise that you get the most basic easy to understand book about electricity ever written, Basic Electricity by Van Valkenburgh.

Learn Electrical Engineering for Beginners. How can I teach myself electrical engineering. Your question is quite general, so it is difficult to provide a specific answer.

How can I teach myself electrical engineering

Could you provide some specifics about your ultimate goal: - Do you wish to obtain an education equivalent to a BSEE degree? This course-work would be heavy on theory -- physics and math. Or perhaps your goal is the equivalent of a 2-year associate degree? In either case, the obvious course would be to simply study the textbooks in a typical curriculum. - Or is your objective more one of curiosity? When you acquire practical EE skills in a particular area -- for example, robotics -- these skills are not really transferrable, for example to music synthesizer design, or to audio amplifier design. Personally, I have a BSEE degree, with a lifetime career in music synthesizers, medical imaging systems, microchip design. Beginners' Guide to Electronics, Part 1 - Basic Components Explained.

Within The Audio Pages, I use predominantly European symbols and terminology - these are also the recommended (but not mandatory) symbols and terms for Australia, and I have been using them for so long that I won't be changing them. 2.0 Definitions The basic electrical units and definitions are as shown below.
