7, experts remind:

Under the background of the rapid development of electrical control, electrical engineering and its automation have the same advantages as machinery and have a wide range of employment. It is a very professional major. However, due to different schools, their emphasis is different, and there are strong and weak points. This should be distinguished first. Generally speaking, the majors of power system analysis, motor, relay protection, power grid and so on are all strong electricity, and the electrical specialty in this direction has become very popular because of the development of the power industry. However, there are not many universities offering the specialty of electrical engineering and automation. Most of the electrical majors in universities are based on weak current, and some schools offer the major of combining strong and weak current to control strong current, mainly studying PIC, Matlab and automatic control principles.

Strong electricity: the best way is that power companies in various regions and large power plants, such as Siemens and ABB, are all big digesters of this major.

Weak electricity: for weak electricity, because it is generally biased towards control, if you want to develop in the power industry, you will generally enter more power plants.
