 Return to: Programs of Study
The Associate of Applied Science degree in Applied Electronics Technology is designed to meet the rapidly changing needs of industry. This program is not intended to produce board-level technicians. Rather, it is intended to give extremely broad technical instruction with practical work experience in partnership with industries that have entered into articulation agreements with UA - Pulaski Technical College. Students receive no pay for the articulated internship, but tuition is reduced to cover administrative costs. Current technologies are bio-medical, communications, environmental controls, automated processes and others. The emphasis is on basics that are applicable to all industrial applications rather than specific applications. Specific training will be provided by employers.
