Difference between "Electronic Engineering" and "Electrical & Electronic Engineering"
Hello, I have applied (and got accepted 
) to Bristol University for Electrical & Electronic Engineering. However, when i look at the course programme on their website, it is exactly the same as Electronic Engineering. So is there an actual difference between the two courses or do they just have two different names for it ? Not that this is a problem, i'm just curious.
Thank you

They're probably common in the first year, have you checked the modules for years 2 & 3?
I always thought electrical engineering is more geared towards power supply, power flow etc. (okay i'm don't really know what i'm talking about..) and electronic engineering is geared more towards electronic devices and how they function?

Most fundamentally:
Electrical Engineering is concerned with the transmission/transfer/use of energy.
Electronic Engineering is concerned with the transmission/transfer/use of information (ideally using 0 energy).
Electrical & Electronic Engineering is then clearly a broader degree, whilst Electronic Engineering is more specialist. Usually the first two years are common.
