Want to work on radar, EW, RF systems in the future. Electrical engineering or Electronis and communications? for someone interested in defense electronics?

Hi everyone,

I'm about to start engineering this year and I'm stuck between two options

  • Electrical Engineering (EE) at much better and reputed college
  • Electronics & Communication Engineering (ECE) at one of central university in india

For context, I've been a defense enthusiast for years, One of the reasons I wanted to pursue engineering in the first place was my interest in military technology, radar systems, electronic warfare, communications, satellites, avionics, and others

I also enjoy experimenting with RTL-SDR and listening to different signals and frequencies just out of curiosity, RF and communication systems are fascinating to me, which is why ECE was originally one of the branches I wanted so,

For people working in defense, aerospace, communications, RF, embedded systems, DRDO/BEL/ISRO, or related fields:-

Would EE put me at a disadvantage compared to ECE if my long-term interest is defense technology? Or does the college matter more than the exact branch in this case?

I'd really appreciate all response

Over 1,200 beautiful petroglyphs and a Rare Ancient Turkic Runic Inscription Discovered in Kazakhstan Canyon, 4,000 Years of Nomadic Routes Revealed

Archaeologists have documented more than 1,200 petroglyphs along Burkhansay Canyon in the Jambyl region of southern Kazakhstan. The rock carvings span approximately 4,000 years and depict goats, Bactrian camels, hunting scenes, and other motifs, demonstrating continuous use of the site by nomadic peoples from the Bronze Age through to the Middle Ages.

In addition to the carvings, researchers identified three funerary complexes and a rare ancient Turkic runic inscription (4th–10th centuries CE), deciphered as “Er atim Aba” (“My name is Aba”). The site served as a seasonal camp, migration corridor, and necropolis, providing valuable new insights into pastoral economies, mobility patterns, and ritual practices in Central Asia.

This discovery underscores the canyon’s long-term cultural significance as a crossroads and symbolic landscape for successive groups over millennia.

Who is Lucky Bisht in reality? A deeper look into the alleged "Agent Lima" and India's ghost units(more below)

Who is this Lucky Bisht in reality? He is surely not a dummy. Yes, some of his comments on other topics might sound absurd, and many might perceive him as not being well versed in the fundamentals of geopolitics. But we should also consider that he wasn't a geopolitics expert he was a field guy working for one of India's external intelligence agencies.

I won't say R&AW specifically, because we don't know if there are other agencies working alongside or under it, We may never know if they even exist, and that is exactly the point of their operations. For those of us who know about the Special Group (SG), could he have been part of the SG operating as a hitman in Bangladesh or Nepal? I wouldn't consider him a traditional intelligence officer as he is ex NSG, making him a much better fit for an action-oriented role rather than espionage

After spending a few hours digging through information on the internet, I found out a few interesting things

1)His real name is laksham singh bhist or agent lima or lucky bhist or we never know

2)Bangladesh Allegations (2009): Bisht is frequently cited in investigations and academic papers regarding the 2009 Pilkhana Massacre in Bangladesh. Allegations suggest he was present in the country as a covert shadow operative prior to the mutiny, leading to scrutiny regarding R&AW's potential role in the events.

3)Israel Training: Like other members of the Special Group’s core cadre, Bisht is reported to have undergone extensive training in espionage and commando tactics in Israel, absorbing battlefield wisdom from Mossad’s Sayeret Matkal

Now, some of you will definitely ask: how can a retired R&AW guy have a podcast channel, a YouTube presence, and do public interviews? To that, I'd say look at retired CIA officers how they have their own YouTube channels If they can do it, why can't our guys? Is R&AW really that much more sophisticated than the CIA?

If you actually listen to his interviews regarding intelligence operations, he doesn't sound like your everyday person There has to be something deeper going on behind the scenes that we don't know about

This inscription describes the defeat of Samsi , the Arab queen of Qedar, after her participation in the Levantine revolt against the Assyrians; the battle is dated to 734 BC.

Many people are surprised to learn that some of the earliest documented female rulers in Arabian history came from the Kingdom of Adummatu in today’s Al-Jawf region of Saudi Arabia.
Queens such as Zabibe, Samsi, Te’el-hunu, and Tabua were recorded by the Assyrians themselves as rulers of Arab tribes and kingdoms.
What makes this especially remarkable is that some of the earliest known Arab queens are not known from later Arab traditions, but from the royal records of the Assyrian Empire, which considered them important enough to mention by name. These women commanded armies, controlled trade routes, negotiated with empires, and played a major role in the history of ancient Arabia more than 2,700 years ago.
