Welcome

Welcome to the website for the 2EET (Associate of Applied Science in Electrical Engineering Technology) program at Penn State Altoona.

EET Degree Mission Statement
The Electrical Engineering Technology (2EET) major helps prepare graduates for technical positions in the expanding fields of electronics, computers, and microprocessors, instrumentation, and electrical equipment. The primary objective is to provide a broad foundation of theoretical and practical knowledge in the areas of electrical and electronic circuits, digital circuits, computers, electrical machinery, and programmable logic controls. The program also articulates with Pennsylvania Department of Education-approved Tech Prep programs. Secondary students who have graduated from a program covered by a signed Penn State Articulation Agreement may be eligible for special admission procedures and/or advanced placement. The major prepares graduates who, during the first few years of professional practice, will:

• Demonstrate broad knowledge of electrical and electronics engineering technology practices to support design, application, installation, manufacturing, operation, and maintenance of electrical, electronic, computer, and instrumentation systems.
• Apply basic mathematical and scientific principles for technical problem solving in areas that may include circuit analysis of both analog and digital electronics, microprocessors, programmable logic controls, and electrical machines.
• Use computers and software in a technical environment.
• Demonstrate competence in written and oral communication.
• Work effectively as an individual and as a member of a multidisciplinary team.
• Show awareness of social concerns and professional responsibilities in the workplace.
• Continue their professional training and adapt to changes in the workplace, through additional formal or informal education.
