Electronics Manufacturing Technology
Do you like to make things? Are you interested in electronics and computers? Then maybe a career in electronics manufacturing is for you!
The electronics industry is one of the fastest growing in the world. As products such as cellular phones become smaller, and computers become faster, the building of these products becomes more complicated. There is a great need in industry for highly skilled workers.
In the electronics manufacturing option of computer integrated manufacturing technology, you study a wide range of general topics in both electronics and manufacturing. In addition, courses in electronics manufacturing teach you the special processes used by industry today. These courses have a laboratory component, so you can "get your hands on" the latest equipment and do it yourself. Industrial organization and quality techniques classes help prepare you for the business side of industry. And math and science courses give you the foundation for learning now and keeping up in the future.
