| ELECTRICAL TECHNOLOGY PLAN OF STUDIES FOR THE
TECHNICAL STUDIES
Associate in Applied Science Degree MA
Purpose: The specialization in Electrical Technology is designed
to qualify personnel in both electrical technology and management
for employment in all areas of a construction firm. Students
will be prepared for entry-level employment in positions involving
direct use of technical skills in the construction business.
Occupational objectives include engineering aide, construction
project manager, construction supervisor, estimator, and facilities
planning and supervision. The curriculum includes content, skills
and knowledge courses that are equivalent to the electrical apprenticeship
program at Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC).
Admission Requirements: Students must be registered apprentices
enrolled in an approved apprenticeship program, have successfully
completed an approved apprenticeship program, or have received
their state Journeyman Electrician license. Students should seek
program admission in the Counseling Center and will be required
to take the English and mathematics assessment tests to determine
if they require any developmental studies for the program.
Advanced Standing: Advanced standing opportunities are being
developed for area high school students and apprentices. Credit
may also be earned toward ELE 297 based on documented apprentice
work-based learning.
