Photonics Technology - Associate of Applied Science Degree in Photonics Technology
- Certificate in Photonics Technology
- The program is designed to expose students to four major areas:
- laser systems
- electronics
- optics
- electro-optics
- Students study the laser both as an instrument and as an integral part of a system designed for industrial application.
- The program covers topics such as laser alignment, safety and the use of lasers in electronics production, testing and maintenance.
- Through the program, students acquire a good working knowledge of light, geometrical and physical optics, optical components and optical systems.
- In addition, students receive in-depth classroom preparation in the scientific principles of laser and fiber optics to incorporate their skills and knowledge into developing electro-optical techniques and systems.
- A primary emphasis of the curriculum is to provide graduates with extensive hands-on training in the scientific procedures and applications utilized by laser and fiber optic companies and research laboratories.
