Electrical & Computer Engineering TechnologyBEGINNING FALL 2011

VALENCIA’S program was developed

in partnership with local engineering

professionals and incorporates the

same state-of-the-art equipment found

in the research and development

departments of major companies.

That way, you’ll be prepared to meet

both industry demands and employer

expectations by the time you graduate.

And with small class sizes of only about

22 people, you’ll get the same individual

instruction and support that students

have come to expect from Valencia.

Expected salary range: $40,000 - $65,000
