(Jackson County Campus)

Electronics Technology is a growing industry that is expanding into many areas within telecommunications, biotechnology, and automation. Industry and businesses rely on electronics technology for creating, manufacturing, and maintaining industrial machinery and processes. This program prepares students to become competent electronics technicians and for entry-level employment in scientific research, engineering, and production.

This program leads to an Associate of Applied Science Degree and is preparatory for employment upon graduation from MGCCC. Where a transfer to four-year college or university is desired, a conference should be scheduled with an MGCCC advisor.

All students completing a career or technical program must complete an MGCCC Board-approved Technical Skills Attainment where applicable. Students should see an advisor for further details.
