Hybrid Schedule – Schedule for Day or Night classes may vary based on enrolled semester
This program provides for a student to receive a Level One “Basic” Certificate in Instrumentation/Robotics, a Level One “Advanced” Certificate in Instrumentation/Robotics, and a two-year degree: Associate of Applied Science Degree in Instrumentation/Robotics. 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 Instrumentation/Robotics.
The Instrumentation/Robotics 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.
