Do you enjoy working with your hands? Do you have an aptitude for math
and science? Are you mechanically inclined with a natural aptitude for
work with technical requirements?
If "yes" is your response to these questions and you have a sincere
desire to move forward in a success-oriented program of study that can
lead to a challenging and profitable career, you are ready for the
Electronics Technology Program. As Georgia's population grows, so
does our state's demand for technicians who can service complex
electronic systems. The Electronics Technology Program prepares students
to be top-notch electronics technicians with the skills to design,
maintain, and repair electronic systems.
ELECTRONICS TECHNOLOGY DIPLOMA
This program is a eighteen-month (full-time) sequence of courses that
prepares students for careers in the electronics technology profession.
The program emphasizes a combination of electronics theory and practical
application necessary for successful employment. Program graduates are
to be competent in the general areas of: communications, mathematics,
and interpersonal relations; and in the technical areas of: soldering,
DC circuits, AC circuits, electronics, microcomputer applications, solid
state devices, linear integrated circuits, digital electronics,
microprocessors and microprocessor interfacing, and basic industrial and
communications electronics applications. Diploma Admission Requirements:
Applicants must meet general admissions requirements, and must also:
Present official documentation of an earned high school diploma, GED, or
college degree.
Present acceptable ASSET, COMPASS, SAT, ACT or CPE scores taken within
the last five years or transfer of program level English and math from a
regionally accredited college or university with a grade of C or better.
ELECTRONICS TECHNOLOGY ASSOCIATE DEGREE
This two-year (full-time) program prepares students for careers in the
electronics professions. The program emphasizes a combination of
