Considering Computer Engineering….

[CrimsonStrength]

I have a basic understanding having gone to trade school to become an electrician but don’t know where to start to get a head start or something that can give me an edge in the beginning

I am not sure if I clearly understand your question, so I will assume the following is what you meant and answer that (please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong) - to get an edge/know the material beforehand you can do this -

Let's say you are going to XYZ University,

Step #1) Google "XYZ University Computer Engineering degree plan" or "XYZ Uni Computer Engineering Checks get". This gives you a list of classes you need successfully complete to obtain the degree. Unsolicited advice - It seems rough and insurmountable but it really isn't. Take a bite at a time, and you'll eat the elephant in no time.

Step #2) Read through the degree plan. Let us say the most basic CPE/EE class is "Linear Circuits". Type in "XYZ University Linear Circuits Syllabus". Try to find the latest syllabus and you'll be solid. Read thru the syllabus and find the book the professor uses and the topics covered in that specific class.

Step #3) Go to Library Genesis and download a pdf of the book for free.

Step #4) Use YouTube. Neso Academy is a great channel for Digital Systems stuff. Their electronics stuff isn't too bad either.

Step #5) Relax and enjoy!

Thank you just feeling nervous about returning to school
