Electrical Technology Electrical Construction from North Dakota State College of Science is a Campus Associate Electrical Engineering degree that prepares you for a Engineering career. The Electrical Construction option of the Electrical Technology program is designed to give students the skills necessary for successful employment in the electrical construction industry. The core curriculum of the Electrical Technology program includes an in-depth study of electrical theory, applied math, code study and residential wiring. A substantial amount of hands-on experience is provided in our six dedicated laboratories, which contain AutoCAD drawing, advanced electrical test equipment, electric motors, magnetic motor starters, programmable controllers, electronic devices and instrumentation. Green technology is applied in areas of lighting and design class, efficiency of motors, controlling of loads (lighting, AC, etc.) in building operation through program controllers (PLCs). The Electrical Construction option adds skills in the area of commercial and industrial wiring systems, advanced code study and planning and estimating. Graduates of this option are well prepared to meet the challenges of today?s modern equipment and wiring systems thanks, in part, to the faculty who collectively have over 200 years of industry and training experience. While students are fully employable upon completion of this associate-granting program, some elect to return for another year of training, earning the Electrical Master Technician degree (please refer to the Electrical Technology, Electrical Master Technician). Other students may wish to continue their education by returning for an additional year, combining Electrical Technology with HVAC / R, plumbing, automated manufacturing or business methods. Students may transfer to four-year colleges and universities for a bachelor?s degree in programs such as Construction Management or Engineering Technology.
