Electronics technology is the application of scientific theories and principles in the design, production, installation, testing, service, use, and control of electrical and electronic parts, equipment, and systems. Students in this area are exposed to theory and history, applied mathematics, making measurements, circuitry, construction, current and voltage, safety, pneumatic and electronic instruments, instrumentation, maintenance and repair, and much more. Specialties in this area are many and include instrumentation, construction electricity, robotics, broadcast communications, industrial electronics, radio/TV, radar, automated equipment, and digital technology.
The Electronics Technology program prepares students for employment as technicians in the diverse and rapidly growing field of electronics. Students may pursue a specialized Associate of Applied Science degree in the following areas:
Biomedical Equipment Technician
Computer Systems Technician
Manufacturing Technician
Telecommunications Technician
After completing 3 quarters of the Electronics core curriculum, covering AC, DC, semiconductors, op-amps, digital systems, and microprocessors, students select one of the four Electronics AAS degree options listed above and follow that curriculum path for the next 3 quarters to completion.
