Yesterday I went to register jamb and the school I applied was offering Electrical and information Engineering, but what I wanted applying was Electrical and electronics engineering, I don’t know if they’re the same. Please I need your answers

no much difference in first degree... elect/elect is general.. elect/information is a branch of elect/elect,...all engineering has branches.. like civil engineering has structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, highway and transportation engineering,water resources engineering as it's branches..

chemical engineering has petroleum engineering, petrochemical engineering etc as branches

mechanical engineering has automobile engineering and others under it..

you specialize fully in your masters degree


so some institutions just take on branch as a course...like you can get structural engineering as in course in some Universities...just the way you are have elect/information in your case...some schools have computer engineering as a course but it's under elect/elect engineering...after your B.eng you can choose to do computer engineering in masters degree...if your first degree is elect/elect engineering...

hope this helps

So in essence elect elect is better??

for first degree...I would say yes...you have an over view of all the branches... and see the one that catches your fancy the most..

I just want to choose something I wouldn’t regret later that’s how I wasted 3yrs studying microbiology, at first I was given geology out of my ignorance I changed it to mcb, chai I’m still regret that stupid decision till now, so you can see why I wouldn’t gamble with this, after jamb I’ll just change my institution n course.

okay...I get your point...I will advise you choose electrical/electronics engineering...the branches are electrical engineering, electronics engineering, information tech engineering,computer engineering...
