The EIET program teaches the fundamental elements of conventional and renewable electrical power, analog/ digital electronics, microcomputer, control systems, telecommunications, instrumentation, and networking principles. The mechanical, hydraulic, and pneumatic systems and related controls are also covered. The program begins with a base of introductory classes in math, physics, statistics, and computer programming and continues on into practical applications of EIET in industrial settings. In addition to advanced level technical classes with computer simulations, the program is strongly application oriented and includes numerous labs and project experiences. Engineering technology is the profession in which a knowledge of mathematics and natural sciences gained by higher education, experience, and practice are devoted primarily to the implementation and extension of existing technology for the benefit of humanity. Students in engineering technology programs acquire hands-on technical skills that enable them to solve production and system implementation problems and help them explain solutions. The mission of the EIET program at the University of Northern Iowa is to provide quality, application-oriented education that produces professionals who will contribute to the advancement of engineering technology in the areas of electrical power, analog/digital electronics, industrial control systems, microcomputers, instrumentation, telecommunications and networking. Students majoring in EIET have great opportunities for a bright career since the major content of the curriculum they study will not become obsolete. Practical industrial experiences during the EIET program expose students to the world of work. Students have the opportunity for hands-on experiences in the classroom, the EIET laboratories, or at local industries through cooperative education and senior design projects. This prepares them for a variety of engineering technology, and technical leadership positions. The program graduates have an excellent reputation among employers in Iowa as well as other states. Most junior and senior level students are employed part-time by local industry based on their skills and qualifications. According to recent statistics, starting salaries of graduates are between $47K to $55K per year depending on qualifications and job responsibilities.
