The EET curriculum is a broad-based, technically-oriented education that emphasizes the application of today's technology to solve problems, design and develop products, and improve processes, procedures, equipment, and facilities.

Coursework is applications-oriented, and hands-on experience is gained through laboratory experiences that are carefully integrated into the courses. In addition, EET students benefit from the strong emphasis placed on internship, Co-op opportunities, senior design projects in local and regional industries, and the development of written and oral communication skills. UNI EET graduates are firmly rooted in modern technology and are able to offer their employers immediate contribution as team players who have problem solving, troubleshooting, production, implementation, and technical project management experience.
