Electrical/Electronics Engineering Technology (EET) is a comprehensive field focused on the practical application, design, and implementation of electrical and electronic systems, distinguishing itself from traditional electrical engineering's emphasis on conceptual theory. As the largest branch of engineering technology, EET encompasses a wide array of sub-disciplines, including applied design, embedded systems, telecommunications, and power systems. Educational programs, ranging from associate to bachelor's degrees, are rigorously accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) in the United States.

Associate degrees in EET typically prepare individuals for maintaining and troubleshooting existing systems, requiring algebra and trigonometry-based math. In contrast, bachelor's degrees emphasize system analysis, design, and implementation, demanding higher-level mathematics up to differential equations. Graduates with a Bachelor of Science in EET (BSEET) are recognized as holding a STEM degree and are often eligible to pursue professional licensure by taking the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam and, with sufficient experience, the Professional Engineer (PE) exam, which is crucial for sealing engineering work.
