Electronics Technology

CAREER OPPORTUNITIES
The Electronics Technology program provides the student with a broad exposure to the fundamentals of electricity and electronics, including digital electronics and microprocessors. After successfully completing the program, the student will have the educational background needed by highly skilled electronics technicians employed in design and development, sales and service, operations, communications, maintenance, instrumentation, technical writing, teaching and computer-related jobs.

The Electronics Technology program at College of DuPage emphasizes hands-on learning through experiments and projects that are selected and paced to reinforce the theoretical material. The program offers a low-cost, high-quality education, a comprehensive placement service, laboratories with the latest equipment, and small classes with lots of personal attention.

Although the Electronics Technology program is designed primarily to equip the student with job-entry skills needed by an electronics technician, credits from this program may transfer to baccalaureate-granting schools offering degree programs in technology.

Demand for graduates typically exceeds supply, with placement in corporations such as Lucent Technologies, Tellabs, Motorola Inc. and numerous others in the Chicago metropolitan area.
