Does electrical engineering relate to automobile engineering?

Answer 1

Absolutely, as vehicles become more and more sophisticated, so does the need for Electrical & Electronics Engineers. I've never heard of an 'automobile engineer' per se (go look up the true definition for 'per se'). It means without exception, few people use it correctly. Anyway, an Automotive Engineer is usually primarily mechanical, but Electrical & Electronics Engineers are needed to design & test all of the monitoring eq. that goes into vehicles. For example, pretty much ALL cars today have a 'brainbox' that controls everything from your horn to the radio, & the interior lights. All of these things, not to mention all of the engine monitoring devices need an electrical/electronics engineer to design them.
