The Electronic Engineering Technology program has two tracks, one with Electronic Circuit emphasis and the other with Visual Programming emphasis. The core program, common to both tracks, provides the successful student with skills in basic electronics, component usage, modern lab documentation techniques, and the analysis of analog circuits, digital circuits and microcontroller systems. In the final two academic quarters, The Electronics Track focuses on Solid State Device operation and the study of Digital Communication Systems. The Programming Track offers 12 credit Hours of programming within a visual environment, such as .NET, or another contemporary tool, based on current industry trends.
