Electronics Engineering Technology Major, BS

The technologists graduating from this program are applications oriented, building upon a background of mathematics, science, and technology. They interface with engineers at the product level and produce practical, workable results quickly, install and operate technical systems, devise hardware and software from proven concepts, develop and produce products, service machines, programs, and systems, manage production facilities and work groups, and provide support for technical systems’ hardware and software.

Students pursuing this degree should work with the department. Due to the number of hours required, some students may find that this program requires additional time to complete.
