Electronics Technology

Description

Businesses and industries are constantly developing new products and systems that require advanced technical knowledge.

ET graduates use their technical and practical proficiency to implement and extend current technology, and may develop prototype products, optimize designs, manage system operations, or provide technical customer support. A specific job definition that demands these electronics skills is the hands-on approach to applying engineering methods and principles needed as members of engineering Design & Development teams. ET graduates' broad range of knowledge prepares them to engage in lifelong learning as new technologies emerge and to progress in their professional responsibilities.

To meet industry's need for this type of worker, the SDSU ET program blends theoretical concepts with practical lab work, resulting in graduates who are well-grounded in current technology and in electronics principles and applications. Coursework integrates interpersonal and communication skills and relates electronics theory and applications to the real world. The curriculum includes coursework in management theory and operations management practice, to prepare graduates to manage workplace resources effectively.

ET graduates will become professionals who:

• apply principles of mathematics and science, modern management techniques, and technology to the solution of current and future problems in the field of electronics technology,
• achieve positions of increasing responsibility or leadership with employers, professional organizations, or civic organizations in recognition of professional competence and the ability to function in team environments, and
• complete licensure, certification, short courses, workshops, or advanced degrees in technical, professional, or management subject areas as they adapt to contemporary operations management practice and the global business environment.
