The Electrical Engineering Technician undergraduate diploma at Conestoga College Institute of Technology & Advanced Learning equips you with the essential skills for a dynamic career in power systems, automation, and control systems. You will explore fundamental electrical principles, including AC/DC voltage, Ohm's Law, magnetism, and circuit analysis, alongside practical applications in areas like programmable logic controllers (PLCs), electric motors, and instrumentation. This program is ideal for students seeking a hands-on education that bridges theoretical knowledge with the demands of modern electrical engineering industries.
This full-time, on-campus program is studied over two years, providing a comprehensive learning experience through a blend of lectures, laboratory work, and practical projects. You will develop proficiency in areas such as computer-aided drafting, soldering techniques, troubleshooting electronic circuits, and writing PLC programs, culminating in a strong understanding of industrial applications. Upon graduation, you will be prepared for roles supporting research, development, and design in the energy sector, with the program conditionally recognized by the Ontario Association of Certified Engineering Technicians and Technologists (OACETT) for Certified Technician (C.Tech.) certification.
