DEPARTMENT Computer and Electronics Engineering Technology Chain Dr. William Clapp Location: Building 4, Room 421 Telephone Contact: Linda Thornock 801-626-6898 Professors: William Clapp, Jay Smith, Robert Summers; Associate Professor: Verne Hansen; Assistant Professors: Justin Jackson, Jeffrey Ward; Instructor Specialist: Steve Green; Instructor Julanne McCulley I he Computer and Electronics Engineering Technology Department (CEET) provides applications- oriented education which produces graduates who are prepared to make significant contributions in technology based career fields. The programs in the department prepare students to incorporate computer and electronic systems in solving engineering, technology, science, and manufacturing problems. The Department offers an Associate of Applied Science degree and a Bachelor of Science degree in either Computer Engineering Technology (CET) or Electronics Engineering Technology (EET). The department also offers a minor in Electronics Engineering Technology. AAS Degree. The AAS degree prepares graduates to specify, install, operate, troubleshoot, and modify computers, automated programmable controllers, and electronic systems. It is designed to give the student fundamental knowledge and basic skills in robotics, automation, electronic manufacturing, fabrication, testing, and troubleshooting. CET. The Computer Engineering Technology AAS program is a combination of software and hardware courses supporting electronic devices, communications, and embedded computer systems. EET. The Electronics Engineering Technology AAS program is more hardware oriented in support of electronic devices, communications, and embedded computer systems. BS Degree. The Bachelor of Science (BS) degree is designed to continue a student's education beyond the associate's degree level. It is intended to provide the student with knowledge and skills in problem solving, critical thinking, project management, team building, and engineering research to identify, evaluate, analyze, and solve complex computer and electronic related technical problems. CET. The Computer Engineering Technology BS program is a combination of advanced software and hardware courses supporting embedded microcontrollers. EET. The Electronics Engineering Technology BS program is more hardware oriented in support of electronic devices, circuit design, power systems, automated control, and embedded computer systems. COMPUTER ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY ASSOCIATE OF APPLIED SCIENCE DEGREE (AAS) » Grade Requirements: A grade of "C" or better in all CEET and support courses (a grade of "C-" is not acceptable). Students must have an overall GPA of 2.5 or higher to graduate. » Credit Hour Requirements: A minimum of 64 credit hours is required with a minimum of 33 credit hours in the major. Transfer students are required to take a minimum of 20 credit hours at Weber State University. Advisement All Computer Engineering Technology students are required to meet with their faculty advisor at least annually for course and program advisement. Please call the department secretary at 801-626-6898 for the name of your advisor and to schedule an appointment. Individual student records are accessible through the WSU Home Page. Admission Requirements See the department secretary to declare your program of study (major - see page 18). There are no special admission or application requirements for this program. General Education Refer to pages 38-43 for Associate of Applied Science requirements. Computer Literacy as defined in this catalog is also required for the AAS degree.
