About Electronics Engineering Technology
Why Electronics Engineering Technology (EET)?
Electronics have revolutionized the world. Think about the number of high-tech devices you own and use. iPod. Cell phone. Personal computer. All are driven by electronic components. In fact, the possibilities for high-tech electronics and their impact on our lives are held back only by the lack of people with the right skills to implement the technology. An electronics engineering technology degree will give you the credentials you need for an exciting career in a field that experiences continual growth in both salaries and opportunities.
Earn your bachelor's degree in Electronics Engineering Technology from DeVry - in just 3 years - and prepare yourself to be at the forefront of developing and implementing uses for electronics not even yet imagined.
Why DeVry for Electronics Engineering Technology?
For students seeking the most comprehensive, hands-on and career-oriented electronics engineering technology degree program, DeVry will give you the best advantage. Here's why:
- Recognized leader. For over 75 years, DeVry has been at the forefront of awarding degrees in electronics engineering technology. Nearly one-third of all EET students in ASEE-recognized programs in the U.S. are earning their degrees at DeVry University.*
- Employer approved. DeVry works with electronics industry leaders to design programs that produce graduates who meet their needs. Compared to other electronics engineering technology programs, we provide students more of the communications and teamwork skills that today's employers seek.
- Career-focused education. DeVry offers an accelerated bachelor's degree program that can be completed in 3 years, applications-based learning in up-to-date electronics labs, accessible faculty with professional experience in the field, program-specific scholarships, multiple robotics and engineering design teams and organizations , and the flexibility of an EET degree earned entirely online.
- Latest techniques and tools. DeVry students develop their advanced electronics skills using the tools and techniques currently used in the electronics industry. This includes industry-standard workstations and Virtual Instrumentation technologies. At some locations, students can build and test circuits at home using electronic design automation software on their personal computer.
- Flexible online learning. Balance professional and personal commitments with your learning goals as you earn your EET degree online. Advanced electronics technology - including a Tektronix oscilloscope and a Fluke digital multimeter - qualified, practitioner faculty, and regular opportunities for interaction and collaboration create a compelling, hands-on learning experience equivalent to that obtained at a DeVry center or campus.
- Successful graduates. For the year ending the February '08 graduates, 94% of U.S. DeVry Electronics Engineering Technology graduates were employed in their field and enjoying an average salary of $42,479. (Of graduates who actively pursued and obtained employment and those who were already employed in education-related careers within 180 days of graduation.)
Program-specific accreditation
