Advanced Diploma in Electronics Engineering Technology Durham College - Oshawa Campus, Canada

Welcome to the exciting world of high-technology electronics! Electronics engineering technologists design, test, install and service electronic equipment in the fields of computer hardware, software and networking of consumer products; industrial automation; medical equipment; power generation; process instrumentation and control; telecommunications; and test and measurement.

In this program, you will learn to develop apps (applications) for the Internet of Things (IoT) using various operating systems, which will run on different wearables and mobile devices, and learn rapid prototyping and 3D printing.

No other discipline opens as many career doors to the exciting world of high technology as electronics.

Electronics engineering technologists design, test, install and service electronic equipment.

As a technologist, you have the ability to expand your skills into a wider career path including the design of circuits and projects. Technologists study more advanced courses in math, engineering theory and scientific principles giving them advanced knowledge. Since many technologists move into more advanced levels of engineering as part of their career progression, this program covers theory through the hands-on, practical, project-based learning of:

• Analog and Digital electronic circuits and systems
• Data communications, networking configuration, installation, security and troubleshooting
• Instrumentation and control
• Internet infrastructure and protocols
• Microprocessor-based controls
• Process instrumentation and controls
• Robotics and programmable-logic-controller (PLC)-based controls
• Telecommunication systems
• IoT and Emerging Technologies

Energy conservation, environmental awareness and the global environmental movement will have an impact on you as you train to become part of the green workforce. We promote job-ready skills through leading edge instruction and hands-on practical labs that are available to you in and outside of regular class hours. To ensure program flexibility, the Electronics Engineering Technician and Electronics Engineering Technology programs have a common first and second year.
