My local Tech School offers a 2+2 program with a local 4 yr college.
The program interest me, but I am not sure exactly what you can do with this type of degree…Can someone provide me some job examples, or a website with this major and examples.
Thanks!
There are a lot of jobs in industrial manufacturing.
I work for ArcelorMittal (a steel company) and we have lots of Electrical Engineers (a good number of whom have degrees in Electrical Engineering Technology).
Most of them work in Maintenance, which involves troubleshooting and repairing electrical equipment. Many of the engineers plan and run cost analysis on new equipment
Our MTE’s (Maintenance Turn Electricians) are Union employees, and start out at around $22/hour, plus incentive/profit sharing, etc.
Even with the economic conditions right now, and our company laying off almost 1/4 of its workforce (at my plant), or MTE’s are still in very short supply. The petroleum industry is in the same position right now…. I would say there is still a hot market for Electrical Engineering Technology right now.
electronics is an interesting field.. u can do hell lots of things.
u can go into chip design, can be a broad caste engineer, can go on mobile communication(if u r studyin electronics and communication)..u can also go into the fabrication of semiconductors(they r used in mobiles n commuters)…
so u c lots of things can be done
all the best for your future
