Today's electrical engineering technician must always be ready to serve our dynamic society. The expanding domain of electronics technology has reached into and overlapped many other disciplines. Electronic technicians of today are different from those of only a few years ago. The Electrical Engineering Technology Program at Naugatuck Valley Community-Technical College offers a curriculum that is designed to prepare students for these new career opportunities.
Emphasis is placed on measurement, data collection and analysis of recorded data.
The student graduates from the program with an associate in science degree, and is ready for immediate employment as a technician or Jr. Engineer. Many students choose to continue on for a bachelor degree. Students gain practical experience by using electronic instruments, microprocessors and computers. Electronic fabrication techniques and the layout of printed circuit boards are also emphasized. As a result of the training and preparation provided by our program, the Electrical Engineering Technology graduate is an important and much sought after contributor to the engineering team in Connecticut's ever-changing high technology industries.
