2000-2001 Catalog
Electronics Engineering Technology (2274)
Associate in Science or Associate in Applied
Science
The electronics engineering technology program is designed to prepare
students for electronics related entry-level positions. These technically
trained individuals are prepared to assist engineers or scientists or
take positions as engineering technicians, technical managers or technical
sales representatives. Some examples of industries offering employment
opportunities are: computer and office equipment, biomedical equipment,
telecommunications equipment and industrial control equipment.
NOTE: Students have two degree alternatives in this program: The associate
in science (A.S.) and the associate in applied science (A.A.S.). If you
intend to pursue further education at the university level, you should
enroll in the A.S. option. The A.S. guarantees your admission with junior
standing into one of the state’s public universities. If you intend to
go directly to work after completing your associate’s degree, consider
the A.A.S. While the A.A.S. will not provide you with the transfer benefits
of the A.S., the A.A.S. will provide you with the skills required to begin
working in the field immediately upon graduation. If you are unsure of
which option is best for you, please see an advisor for further counseling.
Requirements and Recommended Course Groupings
The following is a presentation of required courses in recommended

guide, and there is no requirement to follow these precisely. The availability
of courses, the student’s testing and academic performance and other factors
may alter the student’s actual course completion sequence. Students of
this program may register for courses in any grouping as long as the student
has met any prerequisites for the course.
