system, both hardware and software. The intent of this program is to prepare the
student to deal with a broad concept of automation technology. The diverse
educational training provides for a host of integrated skills that can be applied in a variety of job contexts to include: green
energy technology, electronics, medical, manufacturing, and production.

Curriculum in Industrial Electronic Technology Technical Certificate
(30 Semester Credit Hours)
The Technical Certificate in Industrial Electronic Technology is designed to enhance the technical skills and job-related
knowledge of individuals who are currently employed in the industrial field as well as other persons seeking careers in
Industrial Systems. Upon advisor approval, documented competencies acquired through training, certification, or
licensure may be substituted as equivalencies for related technical courses. The majority of the technical courses are
offered on a flexible schedule on campus, at off-site industrial locations and on the web. Courses taken for the certificate
may be applied to the Associate of Applied Science degree in Industrial Systems.
