Electronics Engineering Technology (EET) applies engineering theory for the solution of real world problems. The EET program at Pittsburg State University has a four-year curriculum which culminates in a Bachelor of Science Degree in Engineering Technology.
The Electronics Engineering Technology program is fully accredited by the Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission of ABET, https://www.ABET.org.
Successful electronics students have the following qualities:
The Electronics Engineering Technology Program produces graduates that are valued by industry regionally and across the globe. We are preparing people to be successful in a wide spectrum of electronic careers.
The program educational objectives state that Electronics Engineering Technology program graduates at a minimum will:
- be sought after and employed by local and regional industry.
- demonstrate the technical skills to support industry needs and/or solve technical problems.
- demonstrate the knowledge and skill to operate across the breadth of the Electronics Engineering Technology discipline.
The Electronics Engineering Technology Program is committed to quality and in order to be successful creating graduates meeting these objectives, we have a detailed set of Student Outcomes we expect to occur in our courses.
The student outcomes in their broadest classification match our program’s accreditation standards and most importantly our regional industry desires for abilities they want in their new hires. They are as follows:
(1) an ability to apply knowledge, techniques, skills and modern tools of mathematics, science, engineering, and technology to solve broadly-defined engineering problems appropriate to the discipline;
(2) an ability to design systems, components, or processes meeting specified needs for broadly-defined engineering problems appropriate to the discipline;
(3) an ability to apply written, oral, and graphical communication in broadly-defined technical and non-technical environments; and an ability to identify and use appropriate technical literature;
(4) an ability to conduct standard tests, measurements, and experiments and to analyze and interpret the results to improve processes; and
(5) an ability to function effectively as a member as well as a leader on technical teams.
