(72 semester credit hours)

An Associate of Applied Science degree program offered by the
Division of Technology and Business.

Organized learning experiences leading to the Associate of Applied Science degree include theory and laboratory work as each relates to planning, produc­ing, testing, assembling, installing, and maintaining electronic equip­ment:  communications, industrial electronics, computer and computer interfaces, digital systems, robotic equipment, PLCs, and microprocessors.  Program emphases are on system and component level troubleshooting, device characteristics, and circuits. Instruction is designed to develop knowledge, understanding, and skills essential for employment in industries rely­ing on electronic means for communication, transport, manufacturing and process control, information processing, and in most electronic service occupations.

 The program in electronics technology provides work-place experiences recommended by the U.S. Department of Labor Secretary's Commission on Achieving Necessary Skills (SCANS).

All students entering CETT 1403 or CETT 1425 must be enrolled in or have credit for MATH 1314.

Students may begin the program in the Fall Semester or in the Spring Semester.  Students entering in the Spring will take CETT 1321 the following Fall.

Credit for at least 72 hours is required to receive the AAS degree in Electronics Technology.
