Idaho State University, Associate of Applied Science in Energy Systems Instrumentation Engineering Technology, Duration

Once you learn the basics, you will expand your knowledge and expertise in the Instrumentation Engineering Technology program by learning how to program logic controllers (PLCs), build motor control systems, calibrate equipment, tune process control loops, and work with automated systems. If you don't have a background in any of these things, then you're just like every other new ESTEC student. You'll get the vocabulary and, more importantly, you'll gain the skills necessary to make a difference in the world.

Program Objectives are to Solve technical problems typical of those encountered in the instrumentation engineering technology discipline by using critical thinking skills, current technology, principles of mathematics, and applied science. Work and communicate effectively in multidisciplinary teams in both industrial and academic settings.

Understand current professional issues and the need to pursue lifelong learning. Graduates will have a fundamental knowledge of energy systems, thermodynamics, electronics and electrical systems.

Work and communicate effectively in multidisciplinary teams in both industrial and academic settings.

Understand current professional issues and the need to pursue lifelong learning. Graduates will have a fundamental knowledge of energy systems, thermodynamics, electronics and electrical systems.

They will have extensive hands-on experience setting up and troubleshooting single and three-phase motor controls, variable frequency drives, programmable logic controllers, sensors, relays, timers, solenoids, and human-machine interface stations. They will be able to install, troubleshoot, and calibrate instrumentation that measures and controls temperature, level, flow, pressure, and other process variables.
