ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS
OSSD with the majority of courses at the College (C), University (U), University/College (M) or Open (O) level plus:
  • Grade 12 Math (C) or (U)
  • Senior Level Physics (C) or (U)
Mature students - See Admission Procedures for details.

PROGRAM GOAL
Electronic engineering technologists assist in the design of the electrical/electronic systems. They “troubleshoot” to ensure efficient operations and perform systems programming functions.

This program will appeal to students with a strong background in the physical sciences and math. They should be highly motivated problem solvers with good communications and interpersonal skills.

PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS
  • Blend of theoretical and hands-on learning experiences
  • Transfer agreements with Engineering and Engineering Technology programs at various universities
EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES
Diverse opportunities exist as process technologists, control designers, control specialists, process planners and product designers, with manufacturers and users of electrical and electronic equipment.

The specific emphasis on industrial automation creates opportunities in design and installation of robotic/fixed automation systems and work cells in manufacturing facilities. The growth of flexible automation (robotics) will provide substantial employment opportunity in the manufacturing field.

DEGREE COMPLETION
Graduates of this program will receive credits from the following institutions:
  • Lakehead University (BASc-Electrical Engineering)
  • Saginaw Valley State University (BSEE-Electrical Engineering)
  • Wayne State University (Bachelor of Science-Engineering Technology)
