This program follows a
structured schedule, Monday – Friday from 8 AM to 3 PM.
This program
provides for a student to receive a
Level One “Basic” Certificate in Electronics Technology /
Instrumentation, a Level One “Advanced” Certificate in Electronics Technology /
Instrumentation, and a two-year degree: Associate of Applied Science Degree in
Electronics Technology / Instrumentation. Both the Certificates and the Degree
are very valuable in opening doors to industries requiring training and/or
education prior to entering the company in electrical/electronic maintenance.
The Electronics Technology / Instrumentation program is an educational process of providing a student with lecture theory and laboratory time in basic electronics, instrumentation electronics, and control theory. There are “hands-on” labs throughout both programs (certificate and degree). A student will learn proficiency in utilizing a Digital Multi-Meter for electrical/electronic troubleshooting. The classes start with basics in Direct Current circuits, Alternating Current circuits, Digital Fundamentals, and progress through Solid State devices, Programmable Logic Controllers, and eventually include Industrial Processes, Control Theory, and Applications of Industrial Automatic Control.
