ELT.CER
Certificate
Electrical Engineering Technology graduates find employment opportunities in the design, manufacturing and maintenance of everything from nano-bots to supercomputers. Many industries employ electrical engineering technicians including bio-medical, robotics, controls, telecommunication, utilities, audio and consumer electronics, and manufacturing and service of every kind.
Study of electrical and electronic devices and circuits. Topics include: current and voltage, energy and power, AC/DC and elementary electronic circuits, electrical safety, wiring and electric motors. Computers are used for simulation and analysis of electric circuits. Theory is supplemented by laboratory experimentation.
MAT-013 or appropriate score on College placement test
MAT 014 or higher level
Through a variety of writing projects requiring competence in clear, correct, and effective English, students will use inferential and critical skills in the process of composing documented essays. Extensive reading materials serve as structural models and as the bases for discussion and for the writing of essays involving response, analysis, and synthesis.
A passing score on the College placement test or a grade of “C” or better in ENG-010
This first half of a two-semester Precalculus course designed to give students extended enrichment to prepare for a first course in calculus. Emphasis is on algebra topics to develop skills properly and a thorough understanding of the concepts needed to proceed to Calculus. Topics include the study of algebraic functions and their graphs. Of special interest are polynomials and rational functions. TI83/84 graphing calculator is required.
An introduction to engineering fundamentals and design through lecture, classroom activities, design and laboratory projects in the areas of Civil, Electrical and Mechanical technology. Students will learn how to formulate and solve engineering problems, both working individually and as part of a team.
MAT-013 or passing score on the College placement test
MAT 014
A study of the graphic language of engineering and technology to include linework, lettering, geometric construction, orthographic projection, pictorial, sectional and auxiliary views and dimensioning techniques. Laboratory time is divided between technical sketching and drawings produced using AutoCad software.
Continuation of ELT 105. Topics include: Electric circuits theorems, capacitance and inductance type devices, operational amplifier and transistor circuits. Computers are used in the analysis of electric circuits. Theory is supplemented by laboratory experimentation.
MAT 129A
Continuation of ELT 110. Study of time-domain and frequency-domain concepts as it relates to passive and active circuits and systems. Additional topics such as power supply applications, power control and power amplifier circuits are studied. Computers are used for simulation and analysis of electronic circuits. Laboratory experiments are used to supplement the studies of electronic circuits and to verify analytical results.
MAT 129A
A study of a digital electronic circuits and systems. Introduces number system and Boolean Algebra topics. Digital electronic circuits and systems are analyzed and designed. Topics covered are: logic gates, Flip-Flops, registers, counters, arithmetic logic circuits, memories and various logic families.
MAT 013
Capstone project course where students will work in teams to design, build, test and present a working prototype project using electronics and embedded computer technology. Students will use schematic capture and printed circuit board layout software. Students will develop concepts and specifications, select component, analyze costs, do scheduling and planning, fabricate and assemble printed circuit boards and prepare a written report and oral presentation.
A study of the hardware, software, interfacing and programming of a contemporary microcomputer. Students demonstrate the application of the microcomputer through laboratory projects. For Electrical Engineering Technology students.
The second half of a two-semester Precalculus course designed to give students extended enrichment to prepare for a first course in calculus. Emphasis is on exponential, logarithmic and trigonometric functions and their properties to develop skills properly for a thorough standing of the concepts needed to go on to calculus. TI83/84 graphing calculator required.

Many four-year colleges and universities will apply many of the courses students have taken toward a bachelor’s degree. The College also has a Joint Admissions agreement with The New Jersey Institute of Technology which will allow students, upon graduation from this program, to enter the B.S. in Electrical Engineering Technology program with junior standing.
They develop skills and the understanding of the theory of electronics. Students develop skills in design, analysis, and the manufacture of electronic and computer equipment through courses that combine laboratory and classroom experience. The laboratories are equipped with modern industrial-grade equipment and provide for a great variety of applications of knowledge.
Algebra I is a prerequisite for all majors. Algebra I competency may be verified with a passing score on the College’s placement test or completion of the appropriate course.
Once students complete developmental coursework (if needed), the degree can be completed in two years of full-time study. They can shorten the amount of time by taking courses in the summer and winter sessions. They can complete the certificate in three semesters.
