Electronics
Electronics programs at North Seattle College prepare you for a range of opportunities in aviation electronics, electronics technology and electronics engineering, biomedical equipment technology, industrial power & control, IT controlled electronics and mechatronics. North's programs start out with basic electricity, expanding to integrated circuits and then electronic systems. Develop broad foundational knowledge in electronics fundamentals and specialize in your area of interest.
Students in the electronics program complete certificates and associates degrees and update their skills while working. You will find a supportive, hands-on learning environment.
Attend an Information Session
Join us for an Electronic Programs Information Session. You will learn about the the different Electronics programs, how to get started, funding options, meet staff, and have your questions answered.
RSVP Here or contact our Outreach Specialist, meredith.bane@seattlecolleges.edu
Flexible Scheduling
Classes are flexible, and you can begin your program any quarter. Start with a short-term certificate, gain skills and experience, then choose to go to work or continue with classes to complete an associate of applied science (AAS) degree. The program allows you to build upon your coursework and move from one program to another at any point.
Excellent Labs, Externships & Community Connections
Learn the fundamentals of electronics with an emphasis on applying that knowledge in multiple well-equipped electronics labs. Enjoy hands-on training in industrial power, hydraulics, programmable logic controller (PLC), biomedical equipment, and IT labs, as well as in our main electronics lab, working with industry standard diagnostic test equipment and industrial robots.
Some degree programs require or encourage an externship to gain the additional experience employers that employers seek. Programs are built and refined in collaboration with industry partners. Contact electronics outreach staff to explore the options and create a plan.
Our graduates are employed in a variety of fields, including:
- Advanced manufacturing/automation/robotics
- Aerospace/aviation electronics (avionics)
- Communications/fiber optics/wireless/internet
