Program overview
A three year technology degree in electronics and control systems, covering circuits, digital and analogue electronics, microcontrollers, programmable logic controllers, instrumentation and industrial automation with heavy laboratory practice.
Engineering technology degrees sit between a trade and an engineering degree, and Canadian industry hires them in volume precisely because they arrive able to work with equipment rather than only to calculate. The optional co-op adds documented Canadian industrial experience on top.
