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.
Below are required courses and recommended course groupings and sequences for program completion. Courses may have prerequisite and corequisite requirements. Check course descriptions for details.
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 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.
RDG-011 may be taken as a co-requisite if not previously completed with a grade of "C" or better.
Emphasis is on those topics from algebra and trigonometry that best prepare students for the first course in calculus. The areas of study are algebraic and transcendental functions and their graphs. Of special interest are polynomials, rational, exponential, logarithmic and trigonometric functions. Additional topics include vectors, polar coordinate systems, matrices and determinants. TI83/84 graphing calculator required.
Appropriate score on the College placement test and/or satisfactory score on the diagnostic examination, “C” or better in MAT-014 or departmental approval
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
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.
ELT-105 with a grade of "C" or higher
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.
ELT-105
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
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.
