Electronics
Electronics programs at North Seattle College prepare you for career paths in aviation electronics (avionics), electronics technology and electronics engineering, biomedical equipment technology, industrial power and control, IT-controlled electronics, and mechatronics.
Students build a strong foundation in electronics – starting with basic electricity and progressing to integrated circuits and electronic systems - while having the opportunity to specialize in their area of interest. You’ll find a supportive, hands-on learning environment designed to help you succeed.
