ELECTRONICS
ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY
as a Career Choice | | Electronics
specialists are at the heart of today’s rapidly evolving technology, applying
their expertise in diverse areas such as semiconductor chip manufacturing, telecommunications,
wireless, computer systems, weapons systems, transportation, entertainment, medicine
and space exploration. Global competition and the unparalleled speed at which
new products are developed have greatly increased the need for highly productive
and adaptive engineering technologists. | | To
meet this need, DeVry’s Electronics Engineering Technology (Electronics Technology
at DeVry/Long Island City) program blends theory with practical lab work, resulting
in graduates who are well-grounded in current technology and in electronics principles
and applications. The curriculum offers a broad base of skills in instrumentation
and controls, microprocessor and computer systems, and wireless and telecommunications
technology. In addition, coursework integrates interpersonal and communication
skills, and relates electronics theory and applications to the real world. |
| |
| Graduates use their technical and
practical proficiency to implement and extend current technology, and may develop
prototype products, optimize designs or manage system operations. These electronics
professionals take a hands-on approach to applying engineering methods and principles,
and are typically called on to perform test engineering and evaluation activities,
as well as to provide manufacturing support and quality assurance. Graduates’
broad range of knowledge prepares them for lifelong learning as new technologies
emerge and helps them progress in their professional responsibilities. |
CAREER
OPPORTUNITIES Electrical and
electronics engineering graduates will have favorable job opportunities. The number
of job openings resulting from employment growth and the need to replace electrical
engineers who transfer to other occupations or leave the labor force is expected
to be in rough balance with the supply of graduates. Employment of electrical
and electronics engineers is expected to grow
about as fast as the average for all occupations through 2010. Median
annual earnings of electrical engineers were $64,910 in 2000. The middle 50 percent
earned between $51,700 and $80,600. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $41,740,
and the highest 10 percent earned more than $94,490.* *Source:
