Graduates are electronic technicians that may perform a broad range of tasks for manufacturing companies or providers of telephone or data networks.

An electronic technician generally works under the supervision of engineers and may support design engineers developing a new product by assembling prototypes and testing them to verify their operation. The technician may also be in the manufacturing department and test and repair products. They  may repair customer products, provide technical support to customers, or assist the sales organization with technical support.

Datacom and telecom companies employ electronic technicians to install and maintain their networks.

Technicians are hands-on practitioners who know how to apply algebra and trigonometry to real-life problems, or run computer simulations to analyze circuits.

To advance in these careers, it is also important to develop skills in communicating

the problems, ideas and solutions to others in the company. Those graduates in departments, which interface with customers, must also develop people skills.

Many graduates choose to continue their education and are accepted into Electronic Technology programs leading to the Bachelor of Science degree.

Alternatively, a graduate could choose to pursue a degree in business, acquiring both technical and business skills.

Others who choose to enter the workforce are employed by companies producing consumer products, medical device manufacturers, technology for other companies, defense contractors, or network providers.
