Electronics Engineering Technology
The Electronics Engineering Technology (EET) program is accredited by the Technology Accreditation Commission of ABET, 111 Market Place, Suite 1050, Baltimore, MD 21202-4012 - telephone: (410) 347-7700.

Educational Objectives of the EET Program
The Electronics Engineering Technology (EET) concentration emphasizes electronics and support areas of manufacturing, computers, and management. It prepares individuals for job opportunities in all areas of electronics. All students, including transfer students, must complete the electronics engineering technology curriculum published in the ETSU Undergraduate Catalog in effect the year of their entry into the program.
Graduates of the Electronics Engineering Technology program at East Tennessee State University will: Possess the technical and professional skills to have successful careers in regional, state or national industries related to their discipline. Demonstrate success in their careers by being promoted, being afforded additional training opportunities, and becoming leaders in their organizations and professions. Show advancement in their profession and confirm this by examining training opportunities, promotion, or other substantive responsibilities. Be compatible with the Department's mission of the translation of fundamental principles and emerging technological concepts to support articulate, ethical and knowledgeable professionals, the College's mission to promote social and economic development in East Tennessee, and the University's mission to educate students to become responsible, enlightened, and productive citizens.
Educational Outcomes of the EET Program
Electronics Engineering Technology students are expected to demonstrate these skills at the time of graduation:
An appropriate mastery of the knowledge, techniques, skills and modern tools of their disciplines. An ability to apply current knowledge and adapt to emerging applications of mathematics, science, engineering, and technology. An ability to conduct, analyze and interpret experiments and apply experimental results to improve processes. An ability to apply creativity in the design of systems, components or processes appropriate to program objectives. An ability to function effectively on teams. An ability to identify, analyze and solve technical problems. An ability to communicate effectively. A recognition of the need for, and an ability to engage in, life-long learning. An ability to understand professional, ethical, and social responsibilities. A respect for diversity and a knowledge of contemporary professional, societal, and global issues. A commitment to quality, timeliness, and continuous improvement.
Transferring into the ETSU Electronics Engineering Technology Program All students transferring into the B.S. degree electronics engineering technology program must take a minimum of four electronics courses that must include ENTC 3310 (Circuit Analysis) & ENTC 3330 (Electronics III). *No associate degree course work will be accepted for electronic course work at the 4XXX level.* If the transfer student is from a program that is not accredited by the Accrediation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET), the required minimum must also include ENTC 3320 (Electronics II). Note that ENTC 3310 (Circuit Analysis) is a prerequisite for ENTC 3320 (Electronics II). It is the student's responsibility to provide evidence that the transferred course work was completed at an ABET accredited institution. (This information would usually be found in the school's catalog.)
