It's a fairly subtle difference, but an important one as regards such things as approach and mindset. Science is the field of using the scientific method (you know, hypothesize, test, repeat) to try to discover thruths about the universe. Electronics in the sense of designing and building electronic devices like computers is more a field of engineering than science--i.e., it's a field that uses the results of science to do and make cool things that people want. Electronics in this sense does use the results of the sciences of solid state physics, chemistry, etc., and there can be use of the scientific method involved in designing electronic circuits (hypothesize, build, test, repeat), but it's really more an engineering mindset.
