Overview

Advanced Diploma in Electrical Engineering Technology (Optional Co-op)

The three-year Electrical Engineering Technology program has been designed to provide students with both theoretical and practical experience, enabling them to work in a wide variety of electrical engineering areas, including power systems and process control. 

In the first two years, students gain experience with electric motors, controls, PLCs, generators, transformers and their industrial applications. 

In the third year, students continue with advanced PLC applications applied to various industrial processes, including machine controls, PID controls, batching operations, remote monitoring and servo systems.

The Electrical Engineering Technology program at Conestoga College prepares students to work with power generation, automation systems, instrumentation, and other control systems. 

Throughout the program, students will also gain experience in safety practices, safety standards and equipment, technical writing and CAD. 

The optional co-op stream includes four consecutive four-month work terms.

Graduating students perform technological functions in various aspects of the energy field, primarily in support of research, development and design at a recognized technologist level.

The Ontario Association of Certified Engineering Technicians and Technologists (OACETT) conditionally recognizes this program as meeting all the academic requirements for certification in the Certified Engineering Technologist (CET) category.
