Hello Rahul,

The principle difference between electronics and telecommunication engineering (E&TE) and electronics engineering: E&TE focuses on the theory and design of hardware for telecommunication systems, while electronics engineers are trained with a broader focus with respect to electronic devices and systems. The special attention to electronics for telecommunication systems is due to both the demand for engineers in the growing telecommunications industry as well as the complexity of Radio Frequency (RF), satellite, optical, and wired data communication systems.

A more general education in electronics engineering includes learning the design and construction of analog and digital electronic circuits. An electronics engineer is qualified for jobs that include building electronic components for integration into larger systems, Integrated Circuit (IC) design work, board layout, programming micro-controllers and microprocessors, and field testing. It is important to note that many electronics engineers have the background required to enter the telecommunication field.

Both Electronics Engineering and E&TE provide engineers with a background that will lead to a rewarding occupation. The salary for engineers in these areas seem to be roughly equivalent, although the telecommunications positions tend to be slightly higher. You should base your decision about which degree to pursue on your own interests. Looking at the job descriptions posted by companies seeking electronics engineers and telecommunications engineers will also provide you with a better idea of the background required and the type of work you will do, as well as an idea of the salaries you can expect.

All the best..!!
