  • Our Program

    With a focus on electronic circuits and systems, Humber’s Electronics Engineering Technology advanced diploma program prepares students for employment in any field of electronic application. Humber’s program offers more in-depth knowledge and practical application of microprocessor interface design, signal acquisition and processing, image processing and HDTV, telecommunication electronics, photonics, fibre optics, antennas, transmission lines and control systems.

    The Electronics Engineering Technology program builds upon the solid technical foun­dation of the technician program. The technology graduate is prepared to enter a wider range of careers. The skills first learned in the technician program are enhanced through project-based learning and increased hands-on practice in the labs.
     

    Your Career

    Your Career

    The prominence of electronic products and components is a defining characteristic of our age, and none of it would happen without electronics engineers and technologists.

    Companies that design, manufacture, distribute, and service electrical, electronic, and telecommunications products contribute over $50 billion to the Canadian economy while employing more than 130,000 workers at some 1,400 facilities in Canada. Work in computers, automation systems, consumer electronics, aerospace/marine/defense electronics, robotics, medical electronics, fibre optics, automotive electronics, mobile and satellite communications, process control, signal processing, and surveillance systems.

    Recent graduates work in manufacturing, installation, maintenance and troubleshooting of electronic systems, as well as in designing, prototyping and testing new devices. Others have started their own business or progressed to positions such as company representatives, technical salespersons, and managers.
     

  • Professional Accreditation

    The Electronics Engineering Technology program has met national technology accreditation requirements as defined by the Canadian Council of Technicians and Technologists (CCTT) and has received national accreditation status by the Canadian Technology Accreditation Board (CTAB).

    The Ontario Association of Certified Engineering Technicians and Technologists (OACETT) recognizes the Electronics Engineering Technology program as meeting the academic requirements for certification in the technologist category.

    Success Story

     I was proud to find out that many of my colleagues at Industry Canada had graduated from Humber and that they had very much respect for the electronics technician and technologist programs offered by Humber. We talked about the teachers that they had and that were still there, about the program and how it had changed to keep up with the latest technology.
    Now, the curriculum is great, the teachers are knowledgeable and they are there for their students. The rest of it is in the student's work and will to succeed in acquiring the knowledge offered."
