Western Canada is growing—the economy, the population, the demand for energy. Electrical engineering technologists are specialists in the generation, transmission, distribution and utilization of energy. It’s a powerful career choice that demands good problem-solving skills and an eye for detail. In return, students will enjoy good job prospects, excellent mobility and great earning potential.
The Electrical Engineering Technology program is a three-year diploma offered full time at Saskatchewan Polytechnic, Moose Jaw Campus. There are five academic semesters and three Co-operative Education work terms. Students study topics similar to Electronic Systems Engineering Technology students, including computer-aided drafting, computer applications and programming, digital logic circuits, basic electricity, semi-conductor electronics and AC circuits. Students' knowledge and skills will become more focused as they advance. Students will study:
Lab work and projects provide a hands-on focus to learning. Students will develop a technical proposal, apply research skills to a technical problem, design and build electrical systems and more. Co-operative work terms are paid, so students earn while they learn. Saskatchewan Polytechnic arranges interviews; it's up to students to shine. It's also a chance to develop important "soft skills" in job interviewing, professional attitude, interpersonal communication and more.
Demand for electrical engineering technology graduates is strong. There are opportunities in construction, manufacturing, consulting engineering, power generation, renewable energy, mining, oil and gas. Students can work in plant operations and maintenance, technical sales and service, automated control systems, design, estimating, metering and more.
