Research Topics for undergraduate Electrical Engineer
Hello, I am about to start my final year as an undergraduate Electrical a Engineer . I am going to be writing my research proposal this year and was hoping someone could give me a bit of a perspective upon the active general research topics that would be worth focusing effort upon, or a certain area of research to consider.
