Electrical Engineering Technology (Optional Co-Op)

Centennial College’s Electrical Engineering Technology program will ensure students gain a solid foundation in a range of electricity applications for many industry sectors.

In this engineering program, learners have the opportunity, during in-class lessons and labs, to put theory into practice through real-life applications. This practical approach to learning will also use simulated workplace assignments to help further develop skills.

Upon completion of the advanced college diploma program, students will be able to demonstrate an ability to design, adapt, analyze, troubleshoot, commission, and install electrical systems as applied to electrical engineering. The range of functions graduates be able to complete as an electrical engineering technologist will serve to ensure safety and compliance with relevant codes and standard practices.
