Electrical engineering may include [[electronic engineering]]. Where a distinction is made, usually outside of the United States, electrical engineering is considered to deal with the problems associated with large-scale electrical systems such as [[Electric power transmission|power transmission]] and [[motor controller|motor control]], whereas electronic engineering deals with the study of small-scale electronic systems including [[computers]] and [[integrated circuits]].<ref>{{cite web | title = What is the difference between electrical and electronic engineering? | work = FAQs - Studying Electrical Engineering | url = http://www.ieee.org/portal/site/mainsite/menuitem.818c0c39e85ef176fb2275875bac26c8/index.jsp?&pName=corp_level1&path=education/faqs&file=faqs1.xml&xsl=generic.xsl | accessdate = 20 March 2012 }}</ref> Alternatively, electrical engineers are usually concerned with using electricity to transmit [[electrical energy|energy]], while electronic engineers are concerned with using electricity to process information. More recently, the distinction has become blurred by the growth of [[power electronics]].
