- This is video gives you a breakdown of what Electrical Engineering Technology is. I go over most of the courses with a short summary. This tries to condense 3 years of college in 4 mins.
I got my EET and it was WORTH IT! From my experience (not sure about others) landed a job at SEL and i do the exact same thing EEs do work in a little of everything tbh design, protection studies in aspen oneliner, etc.
I took the mechanical engineering technology course and I’m in the second year. The good news is that it is not difficult as People always said to me and I got “A” in all the subjects. Thanks god 🙏🏻
Cheers from Qatar 🇶🇦
starting a similar degree soon. this makes me feel a little better, cheers
i graduate from electrical engineering technology from NAIT in Edmonton, Alberta next month!. i had all the courses you had (except for intro to renewables) my program was only 2 years. they cram us with full semesters in both years. where i live technologists get hired on typically doing field service work with utility/ oil and gas companies. cheers from Alberta!
Whats the pay like im applying to that school too, with this program in mind ?
Bro I am looking for electrical engineering technology from SAIT
DOES ALBERTA OFFER GOOD CARREER FOR ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS?
@@Alan-tt9se it depends on the type of company and your expirence. I got hired on by a field service company doing high voltage comissioning. Im also a jman electrician for 6 years. Money is good, 95% of the time i am working out of town, long hours too. Im clearing 6000-12000 per month, depending on the amount of overtime. Most companies in the industry pay overtime after 8 hours, double time after 12 hours. Paid travel. Paid gas, out of town living allowance, Company labtop and phone. Let me know of you have any questions. Cheers.
@@brandonsummers1308 thx bro for the information
I was thinking about taking this next year. What's the job market like right now? Is it worth it?
I did a degree in electrical and electronics engineering and was same as you just described
Great vid! I'm an electrical apprentice looking at taking EET once I get my ticket. A lot of the stuff in the early part of the course we've covered already or will cover in later levels of trade school.
I’m actually doing the opposite as you! I’m getting my ticket right now!
@@RobRobertRobbie why become an electrician after getting your diploma? curious because im a third year apprentice who hates the work and im going into either eet/ee. looking for something with a bit less labor and crawling threw attics lol
@@Twinturbomitch If you have an electrical background then going into eet would definitely make it easier. Would recommend going into PLC programming/industrial automation if you want less labor.
Thanks great over view w great commentary
awesome video fuckin loved it and informative on a simplistic manner
A lot of the comments talk how they cant find a job but its because they go for design AutoCad positions when technologist positions are best for industrial on site work. I finished my Electromechanical Technologist program a few years back and now I work for a chemical facility plant making great income plus benefits as an Industrial instrumentation specialist.
How much are you making?
Thanks for the eye opener service. Moer videos, please 🙏
Shit was funny man.
I have been looking at going back to school, work as a maintenance electrician, thinking about doing this.
i am gonna enter my second yr. oh boy it will be fun with programming damn it
Same you have Instagram vro ?
Beautiful Video
Amazing prov
is this video for an associates?
Hi! Very informative super helpful could please give us the books title please please
Technician? Or technologist program. I was only able to find the technician course at conestoga.
I did the technologist program
Electrical Engineering Technology
www.conestogac.on.ca/fulltime/electrical-engineering-technology
@@RobRobertRobbie what kind of jobs can you expect with this degree? A bachelors (bseet) And is it difficult to find jobs?
I did like it, thumbs up 👍
Great video! Funny and to the point.
It seemed like the audio got softer near the end.
Conestoga college in Kitchener?
Yep!
Not sure about the audio sorry guy
Did they teach anything about PLC'S?
Yep that's what Programmable Logic Controllers are :P I think i did about 5 different PLC classes
Bro i did electrical engineering 3 years program. It was shit man. Haha
Brilliant
You graduated with a B.S. in EET? Do you work as an engineer or as another title? Thanks for the video.
Considered an engineer due to studied fundamentals of engineering -as where Bachelor of Science, B.S. minimum takes four to five years
Most people with that degree just end up getting engineering roles, but depending on where you live you just might have to work a bit harder to get licensed if you choose to do that. Im sure some people get technician or other related jobs especially when it was first introduced but nowadays it's just a curriculum preference thing.
Hmm, I could not get the college website to open, but it appears to be a community college. Did you get a BS in 3years or an AS (AAS).
It's a Canadian College. It's considered a 3 year technologist program (advanced diploma). Don't know what AS is
@@RobRobertRobbie Associate's of Science. I saw that it was a Canadian College, but the degree should still be either a Bachelor's or Associate's right?
@@TheCommonSenseProfessor It wasn't a bachelor program. I'm not familiar with Associates degrees. Might be the same thing but all I can tell you is the colleges call the program I took a advanced diploma
@@RobRobertRobbie In America 2 year degrees are associate's degrees, 4 years are Bachelor's. Here, associate engineering technology degree graduates are considered technicians, bachelor engineering technology graduates are considered technologist (even though they mostly get jobs as engineers), and bachelor degree engineering students are engineers. Thanks for the clarification. It looks like only British Columbia and Alberta off similar degrees to the US.
how to find a job for Electrical Engineering technology
can u share what did u learn in lab practical or what do they teach u in lab ?
So good
Did you get a job? And how much are salary’s like? Im going for this in September.
Do u have to have a in depth background in electrical to start this program cause apart from everything u just listed I know nothing going into this
No you don't. Many guys that started out didn't know anything about basic electrical theory and the advanced topics. However the course started with 120 students and only 40 graduated. So it certainly tests your abilities. Good luck friend 👍
Nice video
You could have “think about it” to get to the “bottom line” and you will realize that baby will “turn on a dime”
Hi
What kind of jobs can you get with this program?
I wonder how it would differ in a 2 year community college. Maybe just everything you listed leading to the 2 year point. Or a more compressed version of everything? Have you already landed a job in this field?
The 2 year program will likely be leading up to the 2 mark. Trying to fit an extra 10 courses in 2 years would be alot.
I have. I work for a automation contractor building machines for manufacturing. I'm doing an electricians apprenticeship atm with plans to get into programing after.
Robert oh that’s good to hear man. that seems like the type of work I would like to do myself. Thank you for your insight. I just subscribed to your channel. I’m a little lost and just seeking knowledge. I have been working as a machine operator in the production / manufacturing scene for a while. And I know that now is the time for me to further my education and move forward. I’m a bit scared but I feel this is the right move for me. How are you enjoying your work?
@@Thomas-fc6gf Thanks for the sub. Yeah man do it. The 3 year option if you have it would open more doors. All engineering/programming jobs prefer the 3 year program. But it all depends on what you want to do.
I do like my job as an electrician. But if I jumped into programming from the beginning I would be making alot more cash. Either way the electrical ticket will help in the longer run with career advancement/stability. The only issue with manufacturing is when the economy is down (like it is now) it's likely you can get laid off. Gotta make sure you get the skills and experience to make yourself an asset.
I’m about to go into my second year in May 😁😁😁
Keep pushing you got this
Hello Robert, I got accepted into the Electrical Engineering at Conestoga, and I wanted to ask you if the professors were good? Is it a good school for this program?
There good. Some are my all time favorite teachers.
Yeah.. I regret getting into that. If anyone on this position of entery just push for EE instead.
Why’s that
You probably went to a garbage school.. if you take EET at a ABET credited school you make a good salary
@@ohmslaw6856 will you be able to get engineering job with EET bachelors ?
@@eb3872 Ofcourse.. I graduated from an ABET credited school with a degree in EET and a minor in mechanical engineering.. I have been hired as a electrical engineer and a controls engineer.. after graduation i was making 60k - 70k right away..
It is important that if you are taking EET that it is a ABET credited school.. or most jobs won't hire you..
I’ve seen you reply a lot to videos in relation to EE Vs EET right now. I’m in the same boat taking EET and didn’t know the difference between the two. I don’t wanna look back with regrets after these workloads knowing I’ll be limited. I would like to get in touch and ask more questions
Thumbnail Pic caught my attention. Are you a JW?
I hope not
What kinda of job will you get as compared to a 4 year electrical engineering degree?
Similar jobs but you get paid less LOL. There is a sence of status when you get your P.eng.
However if your good. Without college or uni you can become the highest paid guy, however those guys are super rare and its unlikely its me or you :(
@@RobRobertRobbie damn bro you ain’t gotta discourage me like that...lol
@@RobRobertRobbie I just finished my first year but in a civil engineering technologist degree. In my country after the three years I can go for honors which is 1 year then go for the master of engineering(MEng) which will allow me to register as a PrEng instead of the PrEngTech. Of course it’s a bit early to make a call like this but if what you say about status is true then maybe I should continue to do the MEng after getting my degree. What are your thoughts?
It would thus make my total years of study 5 instead of three. Would the 2 years I could I have made more from experience really make a difference and be worth it if I pursue two more years for the title PrEng instead?
@@pokeman316 all I can say is the more doors open up with the higher education and certification you have. It all really depends on what you wanna do dawg. I don't have that answer.
Look up what jobs you want in the future and see what you need to get them. Good luck on your journey friend!
Thanks for the video. How does this differ from the Electrical engineering options they offer?
😍
Very tough course haha. not fun at all
Hi mate, what was not fun about it?
@@matthewcohen9361 math ..calcus you know
You left out shit loads of assignment and project work which was the majority of electrical engineering.. -By an electrical engineer
It'll probably make the video 10 times longer 🤷♀️
Man, I wish I had seen this earlier when I was researching programs in the fall. I was thinking about taking this exact program at Conestoga but when looking at job postings I kept seeing that a lot of them have a driver's license requirement; unfortunately I have a health condition that impairs my ability to drive :(
Do you know if it would be difficult to land a job in the field with a restriction like this? Is it a common requirement to be able to travel from one work-site to another as an Electrical Engineering Technologist?
If that's the case (with not being able to drive) then go for something more along the lines of autoCAD/ Solid Works. My local college offers this exact degree but with the specialization I mentioned instead of electrical. If you get a good computer and the software you can work from home for many companies. Plus you can also bid on independent contracts from engineering/ architectural firms for extra work. Some colleges offer a degree in autoCAD and some only a certificate. Either way, that's probably the way to go.
It ll be tough man. You have to find the right place, I'm sure you'll find it but you'll have to be proactive.
Office job would be best doing Autocad or something similar or even sales with a wholesaler perhaps?
Some engineering gigs require you to go on site
I went to a ABET school and majored in EET with a concentration in mechanical with a focus in Power.. i took only 1 PLC course .. took one course on mechanical power.. im pretty good with actual circuits.. but all that math is for the birds.. you learn the most at home fn around
How was your job prospects? Are there great paying jobs for EET?
@@SixSigmaData honestly i never got asked what was my gpa was.. they only seem to care about experience.. it's a good major.. pay rate is averaged around 55-67k for new grads .. finding a job can be pretty easy or difficult depending where you live.. unfortunately in my state (ohio) most jobs want like 10 years experience..
Yeah I've noticed the difference in the amount of jobs in the field based on geographical location. What kind of job did you end up going into?
@@SixSigmaData it was a solar power company.. wasn't bad but repetitive as hell.. lol trying to move to a different state soon
@@ohmslaw6856 what is your experience like as opposed to someone who graduated with a 4 year BSEE degree in the working world? Pay, type of work you do etc
there are no jobs, been unemployed for months
How are things looking 10 months later?
@@pokeman316 got a job in biomedical technology field
@@Imakeyoucry69 good for you bro!
@@Imakeyoucry69 Nice man, I was unemployed for months too after graduation and ended up getting a job in the semiconductor field out the blue
Thanks dude😍
