Electrical Engineering Technology, B.S.

The Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering Technology (BSEET) is a plus-two program that builds on two-year Electrical or Electronics Engineering Technology programs. The degree is awarded through WVU Tech. An associate degree in Electrical or Electronics Engineering Technology, meeting the requirements established by the division, is necessary for entrance into the program. The program is designed to produce applications-oriented graduates with an electronics background to fulfill the demands created by rapidly changing technology. Technical specialty courses in the curriculum emphasize process control, instrumentation, communications, and computer aspects of electronics. Course offerings are designed to be consistent with the evolution of energy-related and computer-based industrial needs of the state and region.

Graduates from the CTC at WVU Tech's A.S. Electrical Engineering Technology may enter directly into the program as juniors. Graduates of associate degree Electrical/Electronic (Engineering) Technology programs from other institutions may enter the program directly as juniors based on an evaluation of their transcripts. This evaluation determins if additional lower division courses will be required to meet the prerequisites of upper division courses in the curriculum.

All students must meet the Core Curriculum requirements for graduation. A minimum of 11 hours of credit in Chemistry, Physics, and/or Biology is required to recieve the BSET degree. This must include a two-course laboratory science sequence. A minimum of 40 semester hours of upper-division courses is required. Graduates must also have a computer programming course using a technical language.

The B.S. Electronic Engineering Technology program is accredited by the Technology Accreditation Commission (TAC) of ABET, Inc.
