I am coming from an architecture background and am thinking about switching to electrical engineering. Architecture has a big creative component.. What kind of EE career path is good for creative types?

 

Why do you want to switch to electrical engineering? What specifically is a creative type?

 

Like “architect” a person called an “electrical engineer” can be doing a very wide range of things. EEs work in fields as divergent as information theory, nanofabrication, photonics, power distribution, product design, and semiconductor development—to name just a very few.

When you say “creativity”. what sorts of activities do you imagine? All of these require various sorts of creativity. If oyu can be more specific maybe it can be narrowed down.
