Is Electronics a dying field?

It is certainly not dying, but as said by others it is changing radically at break neck speed. The need for EE will not go away, and the fundamentals will remain necessary, but the applied parts of the field evolve fast. Designing for reliability, yield, cost is done very differently than even just a decade ago.

Is electrical engineering dying out?

Thank you so much for your help because I am very into the idea of electrical engineering but this one thought has had a really heavy burden on me. The short answer is “no.” EE is in no danger of dying out. A question similar to yours was discussed extensively in a recent thread.
