You can 'do a lot of electronics'??? LOL go to school for Electrical Engineering and see how easy it is... trust me it isn't just 'doing electronics'. wow that is one of the most ignorant statements i've heard.IT>EE imo lol
Prolly cuz I am IT.
EE to me is alot of commen sense and equations.
I can do alot of electronics with out really ever going to school for it. On the other hand you come and correct network 100's of computers together without any flaws and then we can talk.
I am going to school for EEngr with a minor in Computer Science (the CS part might change to Comp Engr), and i've been building computers, diagnosing hardware/software problems, and setting up networks for about 7 years now. Don't tell me setting up a network is harder than robotics or MANUFACTURING a microchip or manufacturing the components of a speaker (or amp for that matter) or installing a massive audio system in a coliseum or....
Not bashing IT either, it's a great field (I love computers), but when you say EENgr is stupid or easy... yeah that is ignorant.
Oh and IMO EE>IT, almost 60k starting salary average around here, and that is WITHOUT any other minors/majors, concentrations, special skills, experience in the field, or specialty-type EE jobs, which will obviously get you more $$.
