Overview of the Program:
The Electronics Engineering Technology program at Fairmont State University
prepares graduates to work in industries producing and/or using electrical and
electronic equipment. Electronics engineers use scientific knowledge to design,
test and develop devices, systems or equipment. FSU incorporates learning
methods and principles to enable graduates to adapt to the rapid changing
environment of emerging technologies. Emphasis is placed on scientific analysis,
simulation, and hands-on lab work. The EET program at FSU is accredited by the
Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission (ETAC) of ABET (http://www.
abet.org).
EET graduates are employed by a broad array of industries including coal, oil,
gas, renewable energy, automotive, manufacturing, aerospace, military defense,
semiconductor, robotics, automation, consumer products, telecommunications,
power generation and transmission, computer, as well as research and
development. EE graduates can expect to be involved in areas such as design,
testing, maintenance, production, and supervision.
The program is designed as a highly flexible 2 + 2 curriculum. Once the associate
degree is earned; the graduate may choose to enter the workforce or continue at
the baccalaureate level.
The Associate of Science degree in Electronics Engineering Technology
emphasizes an understanding of basic electronic circuits and devices. Students
also concentrate on mathematics and science, written and oral communication
skills, fundamentals of electronics, and electronic specialization classes including
transistors, linear and digital circuits, microcomputer systems, AC/DC machinery
and controls, industrial systems, communication systems, and programmable logic
controllers.
The Bachelor of Science degree provides students a greater emphasis on design
and analysis with advanced classes in linear, PLC, microcomputer embedded
systems, data acquisition and control systems, an independent senior electronics
project and elective hours that can be applied to a work experience practicum in
industry. Graduates are well positioned to gain employment in a range of fields
that rely on their analytical and solutions-oriented training.
