You have the option of completing this program on the Indiana State University campus - or via distance learning.
Distance Learning Option:
As a graduate of the Electronics Technology Program, you will be qualified for highly technical and professional careers in instrumentation and control, technical sales and field services, electronics manufacturing, and electrical power operations.
The Electronics Technology Program is open to eligible in-state (Indiana) applicants. The program is designed for transfer students. For details on credit transfer and admission requirements, see chart (below).
Admission -- Minimum Requirements
To be admitted to the distance learning program in electronics technology, you must be admitted to the University as a degree-seeking student and satisfy the following:
- An associate of science (A.S.) in electronics technology from Ivy Tech Community College or Vincennes University
Or completion of an A.S., A.A.S., or credit hours toward a bachelor degree in electronics technology (or closely related field) from a regionally accredited institution that meet the equivalent of the department's 100-200 level requirements for the electronics technology major.
- Courses in basic and liberal studies that are not offered via distance learning at Indiana State University
- A cumulative grade point average of 2.0 (C average) in all college level studies
General Guidelines for Credit Transfer
The following are general guidelines. Upon admission, academic advisors review transcripts to determine which credit transfers and which courses will be included in your program of study.
- Credit earned from regionally accredited colleges or universities is transferable.
- Technical skills courses in an A.A.S. program and credit earned in general education, liberal arts, or liberal studies may be transferable.
- Transfer credit is assigned only for courses in which you have earned a grade of C or higher.
- Generally, an equivalent number of credit hours are given.
- In some cases, credit may be transferable to the University, but may not be applied toward completion of the Electronics Technology Program.
- Remedial, audited, or non-credit classes do not transfer.
- College Living, orientation, and study skills classes do not transfer.
- Up to 94 hours of total transfer credit will be accepted for transfer into a bachelor degree program; at least 30 credit hours must be completed through ISU to earn the bachelor degree.
NOTE: For a free course-by-course transfer evaluation (from Indiana schools and selected schools in Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, and other states), visit the University's transfer planning tool.
