ELET - Electrical Engineering Technology

Alfred State courses are grouped into the following sections:

  • ELET 1001 - Seminar

    An examination of strategies for success, including organizational and study skills, and transfer and career opportunities for engineering students in industry. There will be at least a dozen textbook and research readings followed by written assignments on topics to include the variety of engineering transfer institutions and engineering majors, diversity in society and the technical workplace, personal assessments of goals, values, strengths and weaknesses as related to student and technical career success, and employment application techniques such as resume writing, letters of application, interviewing and follow-up communications. Research assignments use library and Internet as resources and all written assignments are generated by computer.

  • ELET 1003 - Intro to Comp Hardware & Troub
    This course provides an introduction to computer hardware and troubleshooting and an introduction to operating systems.  It serves as a foundation for the computer/electronic technician to build on.  The knowledge and skills obtained in this course will prepare the student for the CompTIA A+ Certified Computer Technician Hardware and Operating Systems exams.
  • ELET 1102 - Intro to Computer Hardware & Troubleshooting
    This course provides an introduction to computer hardware and troubleshooting and an introduction to operating systems. It serves as a foundation for the electronic technician to build on. The knowledge and skills obtained in this course will prepare the student for the CompTIA A+ Certified Computer Technician exam.
  • ELET 1103 - Circuit Theory I
    The course introduces the principles and laws applicable to direct and alternating current circuits. Topics include defining charge, current, potential difference, resistance, capacitance and inductance. Series and parallel circuits are analyzed using Ohm's and Kirchhoff's Laws. Superposition and Thevenin's Theorems are used to solve complex circuits. The transient response of capacitive and inductive circuits are analyzed. A recitation is required as a work session to further investigate difficult concepts.
  • ELET 1111 - Digital Logic Laboratory
    This laboratory implements the theoretical principles of ELET 1133, Digital Logic.  Students learn to build working circuits based upon design goals.  Logic solutions utilize transistor-transistor logic integrated circuits, programmable logic controllers, computer simulation software and field programmable gate arrays.
  • ELET 1133 - Digital Logic
    Digital Logic introduces a student to two-state logic.  Logic analysis will use the binary number system and Boolean algebra.  Both combinational (AND-OR) logic and sequential (flip-flop) logic are studied.  Logic designs are implemented using relay ladder logic, Programmable Logic Controllers, Transistor-Transistor Logic and Field Programmable Gate Arrays.
  • ELET 1143 - Electronic Fabrication
    The fundamentals of prototype design, fabrication, and documentation will be covered. Major topics include: safety, sheet metal fabrication, printed circuit board design & fabrication, schematic & wiring diagram drafting & analysis, computer applications for schematic drawing and printed circuit board layout, circuit construction, trouble- shooting fundamentals, soldering techniques and project parts procurement and cost analysis.
  • ELET 1151 - Circuit Theory Laboratory
    Laboratory experiments parallel material presented in ELET 1103.  The theories and laws governing dc circuits are applied and verified.  Hands-on building of electrical circuits reinforces the interpretation of schematic diagrams.  Verification includes detailed analysis of the circuit under test by calculation, measurement, and simulation.  Outside preparation and laboratory report writing are required.
  • ELET 2012 - Intro to Computer Networks
    This course provides an introduction to computer networks. It serves as a foundation for the computer/electronic technician to build on. The knowledge and skills obtained in this course will prepare the student for the CompTIA Network + exam.
  • ELET 2103 - Electronic Theory I
    A study of solid state devices, including diodes, bipolar transistors, and field effect transistors. Includes the theory of operation, biasing, stabilization, frequency response, distortion, and gain using mathematical analysis, equivalent circuits, and computer models.
