Mathematicans & electrical engineers use math to solve real life problems. How do the they differ?
Asked by caltam84
Both mathematicans and electrical/mechanical engineers love math and both jobs use math to solve real life problems. Both occupation involve problem solvers. How are the two jobs different?

Best Answer:
Usually the basic math has been done for the engineering jobs (formulas for structural integrity, electrical current in a circuit, transmission of radio signals, etc.), but it needs to be applied to solve a particular problem. The mathematician creates the basic math the engineers use.
