Associate in Industrial Technology - Major in Electronics Technology (ELTD)
68 Semester Hours
The Electronics Technology curriculum is designed to prepare graduates for entry-level employment in the maintenance and repair of communications systems, computer systems, industrial electronics, equipment video display systems, and digital display/processing equipment. In this program, the student learns the fundamentals and analysis of alternating and direct current circuitry, electronic device theory and applications as they apply to the electronics industry.
Included is a study of microcomputers/microprocessors and operational amplifier concepts. Advanced digital concepts, IC timers and phase-locked-loops, active filters, along with fiber optics and basic laser concepts allows the student to understand modern electronics technology. The laboratory experiences include the use of modern test equipment for diagnosis, alignment, and calibration of circuitry. The student learns schematic interpretation and troubleshooting procedures. The employment outlook for the graduates of this program is excellent.
This program is available during the day and evening. If attending evening classes, additional time may be required to complete all requirements.
