What is and electrical and electronic engineering technician?

What is different between Electromechanical Engineering and Electronics Engineering Technician - Technology?

  • Answer:

    An engineering program teaches you a lot of science and theory so that you can actually do design and analysis. An engineering technology program focuses more on practical and hands-on aspects so you can build the things that the engineers design.

I never attended a program. I am an electrician. I have been an engineering technician in an electro-mechanical capacity and am currently an electronics technician (sometimes, usually electro-mechanical). Electro-mechanical engineering is a beast of its own, I worked at Solyndra prior to Tesla and our engineers job was based almost entirely of analyzing diagnostics of our systems and specing new parts. Now they were employed as electro-mechanical engineers but none that that degree, was either mechanical or electrical engineers in that role. I was hired at a time where they had built several systems already that were up and running and we as technicians were building more. So it was not an uncommon occurrence for them to come and tell us that part X is not to spec and we need to use part Y. Once we achieved a goals and running tests for them. In a manufacturing environment they are non existent. An electronics engineering technician will only be in an R and D environment, unless manufacturing is heavily dependent on constantly developing technology where new electronics must be implemented. So it is doubtful that is actually much of a profession. Electronics technician like me? Sure. Electronics engineering technician? Not so much, too much of a niche to be practical for its actual purpose. Email me if you would like further advice, stories, or assistance.
