Electronics / Engineering Technology
Engineering impacts nearly all aspects of our lives. Electronics is the largest sector of the advanced manufacturing market worldwide. The Electronics/Engineering Program prepares students to enter the diverse and lucrative industry as a technician or engineer by applying scientific principals of electronic devices, mechanics, machines, and circuits leading to practical consumer, computer, data/telecommunications, robotics/mechatronics outcomes. Students learn best when their work closely resembles real-life situations; and therefore, will thrive in our authentic occupational setting utilizing modern workspace, tools, instruments, equipment, materials, techniques and processes. Students attain the competitive skills to enter this dynamic job market and are also well prepared to pursue post-secondary education at technical schools, colleges and/or universities.
