Engineering and Industrial Technology: ELECTRONICS TECHNOLOGY

 

Associate of Applied Science Degree: Electronics Technology (981.04)

The certificate will train students for entry-level electronics technician positions or help students advance within the field. The Associate of Applied Science degree can qualify students to seek such positions as biomedical equipment technician, communication electronics technician, computer electronics technician, electrical/electronics technician, and electrical/electronics engineering technician.


Under a formal articulation agreement with Old Dominion University (ODU), and with appropriate course substitutions, students may transfer coursework into a related baccalaureate degree program. Students interested in transferring should see their faculty advisor early in their academic plan and consult ODU's catalog, transfer guide, and website for additional information.

Entry into this plan requires the following high school units or their equivalent as a minimum: four units of English, three units of mathematics (two units of algebra, one unit of geometry), one unit of laboratory science and one unit of social studies.
