[1] Like electrical engineering, EET deals with the "design, application, installation, manufacturing, operation or maintenance of electrical/electronic(s) systems.
[6] Associate degree programs emphasize the practical field knowledge that is needed to maintain or troubleshoot existing electrical/electronic systems or to build and test new design prototypes.
Discipline-specific program outcomes include the application of circuit analysis and design, analog and digital electronics, computer programming, associated software, and relevant engineering standards Coursework must be at a minimum algebra and trigonometry based.
[2] Math to differential equations is a minimum requirement for ABET accredited bachelor's level EET degrees.
[7] In many states, recent graduates and students who are close to finishing an undergraduate BSEET degree are qualified to sit-in for the Fundamentals of Engineering exam[8] while those BSEETs who have already gained at least four years’ post-college experience are qualified to sit-in for the Professional Engineer exam[9] for their licensure in the United States.
