And that's fine. Because I don't expect one person >to know everything there is to know about EE. Not to denigrate Penn State, but graduates of the major EE (as differentiated from CS) schools are expected to be fluent in most if not all areas of ELECTRICAL engineering. Look at the exam syllabus for registration of a PE and see how much you are fluent with. I'm registered as a PE (Electrical) in four states and eligible for registration in all the others as well as in foreign countries. I am also licensed to practice law in all California and Federal courts and before the Federal Communications Commission. Are you? I never did answer the title question - I'm 71 and the VP - General Counsel and Engineering Manager of a major communications consulting engineering firm in California. We design microwave and public safety communication systems and submit necessary documentation to get them licensed. We neither sell nor install equipment, but we do provide our clients with project management services and with expert testimony in disputes. -- Phil Kane Beaverton, OR
