I read that GPUs and other computer parts were in the nanometer scale so I thought nanoelectronics were important.
Nano-####, is just one of the many subject areas, which graphics cards, their graphics processors and hence the integrated circuits, is part of.
But there is also much electronic engineering, computer engineering, mechanical engineering, science, mathematics, economics, material-science, chemistry, physics, optics (ray-tracing algorithms), manufacturing, quality-control, Software/firmware, PCB designers, testers, project managers, etc etc.
Nanoelectronics, is just a small/tiny (excuse the puns) part of integrated circuit design and manufacture. If it is even relevant yet, as per my previous post.
Electronic Engineering (and similar) is mainly what you really want.
Or computer engineering/software, if you feel more like doing the software/firmware side of things.
Electronics/Computing is about Electronics/Computing, even though there is a bit of Mathematics/Science/Mechanics/Chemistry/Physics/Nanotechnology/Manufacturing/Economics/Material-Science and perhaps thousands of other subjects, rolled into Electronics/Computing.
