Electronics and Avionics Overview
-
The Electronics & Avionics Technology program helps prepare students with the knowledge and skills necessary for continued education and, ultimately, a successful career in the field of Electronics. Electronics technicians apply electronic theory, electrical testing procedures and related knowledge to layout, build, test, troubleshoot, repair, and overhaul electronic equipment. A technician might service hospital equipment (Biomedical Equipment Technician), overhaul aviation products for Garmin, the industrial controls on a factory floor, repair missile control systems for the government, or specialize in cars and trucks, installing and repairing sound and alarm systems. Wherever your future takes you, you'll be working with computer programs, automated systems, and, of course, electricity. Many industries today, from manufacturing to telecommunications, depend on electrical equipment — as well as the people who keep that equipment running safely and efficiently.
