The Electronic Technology Program provides a foundation
in the principles of the electronic field. Electronics is an ever changing
and interesting choice as a career. Related theory is presented through
actual laboratory experiments and projects a practical reinforcement.
This program includes instruction in subatomic physics
and electrons as applied to the Basic Laws of Electronics. Students
construct circuits used in basic and advanced electronic systems. This
practical application is presented in a laboratory setting as it is in
industry. Students use equipment such as: soldering irons, multimeters,
power supplies, signal generators, oscilloscopes and digital frequency
counters while learning to build, diagnose, and repair electronic circuits
using schematic diagrams.
Upon completion of the program, a student can be
employed as a technician trainee. If a student would like to continue for
further education advanced standing can be received at Community College
of Beaver County and most post secondary schools for associate degrees. |
