Students are required to take courses in Electronics, electromechanical systems, data acquisition, power safety, as well as PV, solar thermal, wind, and geothermal power. This degree prepares students to apply for companies that install, maintain, monitor, and even design these systems and materials. As the need for electrical power has continued to increase dramatically both domestically and internationally, the demand for renewable energy sources has also increased and is expected to continue doing so. To receive an Associate of Applied Science in the Engineering Technology program, students must: (a) make a minimum grade of C in all required electronic, math, and science courses and (b) have an overall GPA of 2.0 or greater.
