Electronics Engineering Technology

The program provides a basic background of electronics with practical applications for business and industry.  Courses include analog and digital circuits, discrete and integrated circuits, transducers and sensors, fractional horsepower motors, and microprocessor interfacing programming. Students can choose electives from industrial, telecommunications, audio/video/broadband, or biomedical. An entry-level electronics engineering technician performs corrective and preventive maintenance, builds, installs, and modifies equipment, demonstrates technical and professional skills through teamwork  in a safe manner. The entry-level technician also uses good communication skills on a daily basis.

 Upon successful completion of the Electronics Engineering Technology program, the student should be able to perform the following functions:

1.  A student should have the ability to work with his/her coworkers, customers, clients, be able to communicate with written reports, give oral presentations and manage his/her time effectively.

2.  A student should possess knowledge of DC and AC circuits, logic circuits, communication circuits, and industrial controls in order to install, test, maintain, analyze and troubleshoot electronic circuits and systems effectively.

3.  A student should possess the ability to apply current knowledge of mathematics, science and technology to solve and interpret experiments and apply results to improve the process.

4.  A student should have basic worker traits such as being a self-starter, being creative, and should understand professional, ethical, and social responsibilities.

5.  A student should be committed to continue developing knowledge and skills after graduation by obtaining certifications and staying current with technology.
