Description:

Our world is becoming more automated all of the time. Building control systems, manufacturing processes, industrial robotics, power generation and distribution, and thousands of other processes. They all rely on electrical equipment and digital processes to keep them operating properly and communicating to each other. But it still takes a person to design, program, install and maintain all of that equipment. Could that person be you?

Confederation College’s Electrical Engineering Technology advanced three-year diploma program is an advanced program of study that places special emphasis on computerized electronic control applications using state-of-the-art DCS, PLCs, drive systems, as well as today’s leading panel and PC-based SCADA/HMI packages. You’ll learn about electronics and computer fundamentals, applied mathematics, telecommunications, networks, automation control systems, process control systems and power systems.
