Program Mission

The Electrical and Electronics Technology Program at Galveston College is designed to provide hands-on training on the same equipment used by business and Industry.  In addition, this program is designed to provide the students with the necessary skills required to be proficient in industrial systems, industrial building/maintenance technology, and facility and equipment maintenance.  Students will have the opportunity to learn various industrial maintenance processes that will provide the basic preparation for entry-level jobs in the fields of Electrical/Electronics and Instrumentation.

• Demonstrate safe practices and procedures related to electricity, electronics, and electro-mechanical systems, equipment, hardware, and software.
• Use oral, written, interpersonal, and teamwork skills to effectively interact with customers, employers, coworkers, and others.
• Apply critical thinking skills and problem solving skills
• Use computer-aided design technology to perform electronic circuit design, simulation, and analysis
• Use basic test equipment to construct, analyze, and troubleshoot electrical and electronic components, circuits, and systems
• Demonstrate competency working with various sensors, servomechanisms, programmable logic controllers, industrial networks, microprocessor and PC-based systems, I/O cards, DC and AC drives, robotics, and vision systems.
• Demonstrate the ability to select, obtain and use current technical application information and equipment, systems, subsystems and components
• Construct, troubleshoot, and repair electrical, electronic, and electro-mechanical systems
• Install, configure, calibrate, test, and troubleshoot automated electro-mechanical systems and related equipment, hardware and software

ETIP is a project to establish a new Instrumentation track in the Electrical/Electronic Program at Galveston College funded by the National Science Foundation.

The new Instrumentation track, prepares students in one semester for entry-level positions as instrumentation helper. The program lays a foundation for students who later plan a career as instrumentation technicians. Students may earn NCCER (National Center for Construction Education and Research) credentials.
