"When hoping to enter the field of electrical engineering, students with master's degrees in electrical engineering have a competitive advantage during the hiring process. As a subset of general engineering, electrical engineering jobs require a great deal of technical knowledge and skills and require a great deal of studying and education to become proficient," writes editor of Nonprofit Colleges online, Sam Mazany, adding, "Many hiring for electrical engineering positions will not even consider a candidate for the job unless they possess the qualification of a specialized degree." Those with electrical engineering degrees may go on to a wide variety of careers. As students they may learn about electronics or computer components, design power grids and electric power generation systems, or something close to architectural work. The field of electrical engineering is quite large and salaries start at just under $100,000 a year.
