Overview

The Electrical Engineering Technology program of New England Institute of Technology is a unique combination of two traditional electronic and electrical topics. The study of electronic components, electronic subsystems, and programming of microprocessor systems is combined with that of automation systems or advanced industrial controls, energy management and process control. ELT students are presented with applications of complex automation controllers, network communications, data acquisition, process manufacturing and microcontroller systems in order to develop an increased level of understanding which enhances their professional value to prospective employers.

At the conclusion of the ELT program, the students are expected to develop and synthesize their own design project demonstrating the applied skills acquired throughout the program or find an internship in a related field. The “hybrid” approach of the ELT program that combines traditional electronic and electrical skill sets provides students with a unique knowledge base that will allow them to pursue careers under the direction of an engineering staff but above that of the traditional electrical worker.

Graduates of this program are qualified for positions in product development, operations, or technical service. The engineering technologist works with a professional engineer or scientist in converting scientific knowledge and craftsmanship into products and techniques. Upon completion of this program, students may also choose to continue into the NEIT Master of Science in Engineering Management degree program.

Student Outcomes:

Students will develop:

an ability to apply knowledge, techniques, skills and modern tools of mathematics, science, engineering, and technology to solve broadly-defined engineering problems appropriate to the discipline;

an ability to design systems, components, or processes meeting specified needs for broadly-defined engineering problems appropriate to the discipline;

an ability to apply written, oral, and graphical communication in broadly-defined technical and non-technical environments; and an ability to identify and use appropriate technical literature;

an ability to conduct standard tests, measurements, and experiments and to analyze and interpret the results to improve processes; and

an ability to function effectively as a member as well as a leader on technical teams.
