However, EE spansa much broader spectrum. The topics of communications and networking are often not presentedto high school students at all, and students are unaware of the fascinating challenges connectedwith careers in this direction.The current pandemic, entailing remote education, offers a unique opportunity to teachcommunications and networking.
