Electronics Engineering Technology is a degree program that prepares learners and equips them with the knowledge and expertise to supervise, test, develop, and design the electrical equipment’s manufacturing including, communication systems, power generation equipment as well as electric motors, navigation, and radar systems. Additionally, the degree enables the learners to design and develop electronic equipment including communication and broadcast systems like Global Positioning System (GPS), and music player devices. The accreditation of the program was done by the “Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission (ETAC)” which is under the “Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET).”
Deny University offers the course either in Campus or on an online platform with the initials Engineering Technology- Electronics. One of the major specializations in the program is Renewable Energy. The key learning areas include complex problem-solving, programmable logic devices, hardware description languages, digital systems and signal processing, electronic circuits and devices, microprocessor architecture, controls, and mechatronics, and lastly technology integration and analysis.
My Career of Interest
There are several careers that come with studying Electronics Engineering Technology. The program has a wide range of practice area in the industry, where one can pursue specific careers, from communications to medical device manufacturing, to consumer product design. My career of interest after studying the program is to become a test engineer or rather a technologist. In this position, I have quenched my passion for designing, planning, and evaluating products in collaboration with production management. I have always yearned to see that products which get to the market are easily identifiable and can be tested thoroughly.
