From the global positioning system that can continuously provide the location of a vehicle to giant electric power generators, electrical engineers are responsible for a wide range of technologies.  Electrical engineers design, develop, test, and supervise the manufacture of electrical and electronic equipment.  Electrical engineers specialize in different areas such as power generation, transmission, and distribution; communications; and electrical equipment manufacturing, or a specialty within one of these areas - industrial robot control systems or aviation electronics for example.
