Electrical engineering is an application of electrical physics

Site, but that's like saying "writing is an application of language". The profession of writing is immensely different from the profession of inventing or studying a language. And the profession of electrical engineering is substantially different from the profession of studying electrical phenomena. There's certainly overlap but it's different fields.
