Enter the workforce or transfer to a four-year college |
Technology is central to the economy of the 21st century, and the demand for
skilled technicians continues to increase steadily. Knowledge and skills in
electronics are essential for those seeking careers in manufacturing, service,
and technical sales and support.
The electronics core curriculum provides students with a background in analog
and digital electronics as well as a broad general education which can be the
foundation for further study at four-year colleges and universities. As a
student in one of these programs, you will receive hands-on training in QCC’s
modern laboratories and study under the direction of instructors who have
extensive experience in the field of electronics.
The Biomedical Instrumentation Option, in addition to providing a sound
background in analog and digital electronics, requires students to take courses
in anatomy and physiology and a cooperative work experience. This prepares the
student to enter the workforce as an essential member of a medical organization,
working with the electronic instrumentation equipment that is critical to
today’s high-tech health-care industry. Students may also continue their
education by pursuing a bachelor’s degree at a 4-year institution.
