Ontario College Advanced Diploma in Electrical Engineering Technology (Co-op)

Electrical Engineering Technology is a three-year Ontario advanced diploma program that includes up to 16 months of paid co-op experience. Students work on electrical, electronic, and digital components combined with a co-op that provides eight months of real-world electrician training and an upgrade to an advanced diploma.
In this program, students gain both theoretical knowledge and practical experience to enable them to work in a wide variety of areas within electrical engineering including industrial process control and power systems. Students learn about and work with PLCs, electric motors, digital systems, control automation, transformers and explore the application of technology in the industry. Senior students continue studies with telecommunication, networking, HMI, programming embedded systems, and advanced PLC applications and explore their application within industrial processes including machine and motor control, PID systems, and robotics. Throughout the program, students will also gain experience in safety practices, safety standards, technical writing and CAD prior to their co-op which provides the student with up to 16 months of paid co-op to apply and hone their hands-on skills and theoretical knowledge in the real world before they launch into their career within the industry.
The Electrical Engineering Technology program will prepare graduates for jobs in growth areas of automation, network communications, electrical utilitiesprotection, process control, electronics and embedded systems. Students will study electrical system design, automation, power generationdistribution and develop practical skills. Graduates will be skilled in AutoCAD, hydraulicpneumatic systems, PLCs, motors, electronics, programming and industrial automation. Throughout the program, students will apply this knowledge in conjunction with the Canadian Electrical Code, workplace health and safety and project management applications. Additionally, students will enhance their interpersonal and communication skills.
