Wallace College - Industrial Electronics Technology

INDUSTRIAL ELECTRONICS TECHNOLOGY (ILT)
(Wallace Campus)

The Industrial Electronics Technology program provides the skills and knowledge required by today’s high-tech industries. Options are available for students who are interested in robotics, programmable logic controls, instrumentation and process control devices, and wireless communication. Students also learn about programming languages that focus on network-supported industrial applications integrated into wide area networks and local area networks. The Wallace program offers preparation for several industrial certifications.
Students can pursue an associate in applied science degree or short certificate in Industrial Electronics Technology. Students completing the general education core requirements, the Industrial Electronics Technology core requirements, and course requirements in the chosen area of concentration will receive an associate in applied science degree.

Students with prior electronics experience may pursue a short certificate in specific areas. The short certificate in the Industrial Networking Technologies option is for professionals desiring to update their certifications or learn the latest networking technologies in areas such as PC maintenance, LAN and WAN design, and wireless devices configuration. The Industrial Process and Control option is for those seeking additional instruction in PLCs, robotics, instrumentation operation and calibration, hydraulics, pneumatics, microprocessors, and digital circuits.

Admission is conditional and depends on the student’s ability to perform the essential functions identified for this program. Reasonable accommodations are considered.
