| Associate in Applied Science | |||
| Electrical Technology emphasizes both the theory and the application of scientific and engineering methods, and prepares the student for immediate employment or for transfer to an upper division school upon graduation. The graduate is prepared to be the intermediary between the design engineer and the skilled craftsman. EETs translate problems into solutions by building equipment using their knowledge of mathematics, physics, linear and digital electronics, microprocessor hardware and software, machines, robotics, process control, circuit analysis, and computer programming. This program may require more than two years to complete if an entering student has not completed admission requirements for the program (contact admissions for further info). Students lacking any of these courses may be required to take MAT096 Elementary Algebra and Trig. to prepare for MAT130 Applied Algebra and Trig. and PHY090 Preparatory Physics. SEQUENCE OF COURSES: This model is a two-year course schedule for students meeting all program requirements and deciding to pursue full-time study. Schedules will be redesigned for those requiring preparatory courses or those deciding to pursue part-time study. |

| NOTES: | |||
| 1Students should consult with the department chairperson or designee to determine the appropriate mathematics course. **ET graduates can elect to complete five additional courses: MAT 160 or 181, Physics 162 (with 162L lab), EET 252 (with 252L labe) and graduate with a second degree in Electrical Engineering Technology. For completion of the Electrical Engineering Technology program within two years, entering students are required to have completed: Sequential High School Math I,II,III, or Applied Math I, II, III, IV, or their equivalent Regents Physics or Principles of Technology I, II, or General Physics Additional high school mathematics and technical courses are also recommended. However, students lacking this background may enter the program and take preparatory courses. |

| After BCC… then what? | |||
| Graduates of the BCC EET program are employed in a variety
of large and small industries, both in the local area and nationally. Some
are working on computers for the space shuttle, as well as aircraft control
systems. Others work in the electrical power industry, on the distribution
and monitoring of electrical energy. Many build and install advanced computer
systems for industrial customers around the world. Others are successful
technical representatives of large companies, advising clients on the uses
of new technologies in products under development.
Graduates are prepared for immediate employment as engineering assistants, technical specialists, or field service representatives. They work for companies like NYSEG, IBM, Xerox, Eastman Kodak, Universal Instruments, Raymond, DEC, and Corning Glass. The EET graduate can transfer directly into a Bachelor of Technology program, or with additional physics, chemistry, and calculus courses at BCC, into a four-year engineering program. |
