Applied Electronics

  • Description: The Applied Electronics Major is structured to provide a student with an application-oriented, electronic/electrical background, extensive hands-on laboratory experience, and the use of standard and specialized test equipment. The relevant knowledge, the skills that industry needs today, and the competencies that are integrated into the curriculum are intended to prepare the graduate to be job-ready in the high-tech workplace at the end of two years, and enter into a rewarding career in one of the electronics fields.
The Applied Electronics major is approved by the Federal Aviation Administration as a part of the College Training Initiative, through which students are eligible for part-time (work-study) employment with the FAA or full-time employment after graduation.  LCCC has the only FAA approved program in Ohio.
