Electrical Engineering Technology

The program graduates find employment in such areas as computer systems and networks, electronics, telecommunications, power generation and distribution, controls, instrumentation and automation. Job responsibilities would include design, development, liaison, cost estimation, supervision, installation, testing, maintenance, services or sales. The electrical engineering technology profession has substantial career opportunities, excellent average starting salary, very good median long-term salary, robust job growth and great career fulfillment. The demand for the program graduates will further increase when the $1-trillion infrastructure bill in U.S. Congress is passed and implemented over the next eight years.

The program is offered by the Lee Gildart and Oswald Haase School of Engineering (GHSE) at the Metropolitan Campus, Teaneck, New Jersey and is professionally accredited.

The school also offers an electrical engineering technology minor (for non-electrical engineering technology majors and non-electrical engineering majors).

The faculty members maintain excellent communication with the industry and encourage students to gain industrial experience through cooperative education. Laboratory and industry-oriented project assignments complement the lectures and recitations throughout the program to provide students with these learning opportunities that are crucial to their success in the workplace. Students work in many state-of-the-art laboratories. A capstone project based on an approved written proposal is required in the eighth semester for all students.
