The Electronics Engineering Technology program prepares graduates to work in a wide variety of industries producing and/or using electrical and electronic equipment.
The Electronic Engineering Technology department offers both an Associate of Science degree and a Bachelor of Science degree in Electronics Engineering Technology. Our instructional strategy is designed to produce graduates with knowledge, applied skills, and experiences in engineering technology, but also with problem-solving, critical thinking, teamwork, and communication skills required by modern industries.
The Electronics Engineering Technology program is accredited by the Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission (ETAC) of ABET.
Accredited 2+2 Curriculum
In two years an Associate’s EET degree can be earned opening opportunities for a new career. A Bachelor’s EET degree can be obtained by providing more advanced coursework.
Both EET degree programs at FSU are accredited by the Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission (ETAC) of ABET. The ABET accreditation is essential for continuing education at other institutions of higher learning, and many employers will not hire graduates from non-accredited schools.
The Associate’s EET program offers a thorough understanding of Digital Electronics, Circuit Analysis, Electronic Devices, Machinery Controls, Programmable Logic Controllers, and Industrial Electronics. Coursework involves theoretical analysis, software simulation, and hands-on applications.
The Bachelor’s EET degree program builds on the knowledge and experiences of the Associate's program. The student will receive comprehensive training in communication systems, microcontrollers, advanced linear electronics, advanced automation systems, data acquisition, and control systems. During the student’s senior year, a capstone project applies learned principles to solve a current business or industry problem or develop some useful technical application.
Theory and Application
The principles learned at FSU can be applied in a wide range of careers, including biomedical, energy, transportation, communications, entertainment, defense, and manufacturing.
EET graduates make an impact by developing technology to improve lives. The very first semester the EET student will create interesting electronic projects and benefit from the real-world experiences of the FSU professors.
