AUTOCAD must be tested, if possible, three-dimensional test, as well as electrical drawing software. At present, EPLAN, ELECWORKS and PC are more common.

I suggest you learn computer language, PLC (Mitsubishi, S7-300, AB).

The major of electrical engineering and automation trains senior engineering talents with basic knowledge of engineering technology and corresponding professional knowledge of electrical engineering, and with the basic ability to solve technical analysis and control problems of electrical engineering. The major of electrical engineering and automation is to train wide-caliber and compound senior engineering and technical talents who can work in electrical engineering and automation, computer technology application, economic management and other fields for all walks of life.

Electrical engineering and its automation involve many fields such as power electronics technology, computer technology, motor technology, information and network control technology, electromechanical integration technology and so on. It is a comprehensive subject, which is mainly characterized by the combination of strong and weak electricity, mechatronics, software and hardware, electrical technology and electronic technology, components and systems, so that students can master the basic skills in the fields of electrical electronics, system control, electrical control, power system automation, electrical automation devices, computer application technology and so on.
