## Frequently Asked Questions About Electronics Engineering Technology

### What is electronics engineering technology?

Electronics engineering technology is a hands-on field focused on understanding, building, testing, and maintaining electronic systems.

It emphasizes practical application, with work involving circuits, control systems, and technology used in real-world industries.

### What are possible career paths in electronics engineering technology?

Career paths in electronics engineering technology can include roles like electronic engineering technologist, assembly technician, and robotics technician, in industries such as manufacturing and automation.

### What is the difference between the EET bachelor’s program and the ESET bachelor’s program?

The electronics engineering technology bachelor’s programs share many of the same core courses and technical skills, but differ mainly in location availability and accreditation.

The EET program is offered at more on-ground campus locations, while the ESET program is available online and is ABET-accredited.

### Do I need to complete the associate program in EET before I can take the bachelor’s programs?

No. You can enroll directly in the bachelor’s programs without completing the associate first.

However, the associate program can serve as a good bridge, allowing you to build foundational skills and transition smoothly into the ESET bachelor’s program.

### Will I still have a hands-on experience if I enroll in an online program?

Yes. ECPI University’s Online campus is designed to deliver a fully hands-on and interactive approach, so you can build practical skills in a flexible format.

### What is an ABET-accredited program?

ABET accreditation means a program meets recognized standards for quality in engineering and technology education. This recognition confirms that the program’s curriculum, faculty, and hands-on training prepare graduates with the skills needed for today’s workforce.
