Welcome to Electrical Engineering Technology!The EET program
is a traditional electrical and electronic engineering technology
program with extra concentration in subject areas that are particularly
important to industry in the Northeast. These subject areas are: analog
electronic design, process control and communication systems, electrical
machinery operation and microcomputer applications. All courses in the
program are taught in a way that includes a strong component of
practical applications, along with basic theoretical concepts. During
the first two years of the program students receive a firm grounding in
mathematics and the physical sciences. Introductory courses cover topics
such as:
- DC Circuit Analysis
- Microcontroller Programming
- Computer Programming
- Analog Circuit Fundamentals
- AC Circuit Analysis
- Digital Electronics
- Microcomputer Applications
- Technical Communications
The program then allows students to pursue two possible options. For
those focused on electrical engineering, they may choose the electrical
option. This option provides the student with a well-rounded coverage
of electrical engineering topics such as electronic design, sequential
motion control, PID control, electric machinery and power systems
analysis.
For those more interested in information technology, we offer the
information technology option. With this option, students chooses from
a wide range of courses in computer engineering, information systems
engineering, new media, computer science and management information
systems.
The electrical option includes technical engineering courses
such as:
- Instrumentation Design and Applications
- Statistical Process Control
- Electromechanical Systems
- Programmable Logic Control
- Control Systems Design
- Power Electronic Drives
- Transformers and Switchgear
- Fault Analysis and Protective Device Coordination
The information technology option includes
courses such as:
- Unix Systems Administration
- Introduction to Artificial Intelligence
- Hardware Applications using C
- Neural Networks
- Industrial Computer Control
- Parallel Programming
- Computer Architecture and Organization
- Computer Networks
