For more information on the Electrical/Electronic Technology Program, please contact the program coordinator, Tom Zach at 618-235-2700 BC x5432 or thomas.zach@swic.edu.

All students entering any of the EET A.A.S. Degree Programs must have the Math and English assessment placement evaluation before enrolling in any electrical/electronics class except EET 100 or any certificate program. Although assessment is not required for certificate programs, students are highly encouraged to take the assessment placement evaluation, and if necessary, enroll in appropriate courses to bring their skills to a level that will help ensure their success in later courses. See the program coordinator or an academic counselor for more information.
