Electrical and Computer Engineering Associate of Applied Science Degree EE13
Electrical, electronic, instrumentation, and computer technicians apply the principles of science and mathematics to develop solutions to technical problems. Their work is the link between scientific discoveries and the commercial applications that meet societal and consumer needs. Technicians use computers extensively to produce and analyze designs, to simulate and test how a machine, structure, or system operates, to generate specifications for parts, to monitor the quality of products, and to control the efficiency of processes. This program is accredited by the Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission (ETAC), of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET). Visit http://www.abet.org for more information, or contact ABET at: 415 North Charles Street, Baltimore, MD 21201; Phone 410-347-7700. ABET is an international association that recognizes schools and colleges producing students prepared to enter a global workforce defined by a set of quality standards. These standards are guided by the following Program Educational Objectives (PEO) and Student Outcomes.
Program Educational Objectives (PEO):
Execute technical tasks using modern tools and scientific methods to be successfully employed in an industrial environment.
Demonstrate the application of science, engineering and technology solutions to solve technical problems in electronics/electrical and computer systems.
