Electrical engineering, notably, if you mean eix = cos x + i sin x.

(There may need to be some disambiguation. In polyhedra, the formula F+V=E-2 is also called Euler's formula, IIRC; this has minor application.)

Euler was a very prolific mathematician (founder of topology I believe), and one of the other things he investigated was buckling of beams under end load, force to buckle = pi2*E*I/Leff2. I suppose you could call that Euler's formula, but usually known as Euler buckling.

eiπ + 1 = 0 Beautiful. 5 of the most important concepts in mathematics united in one formula.
