ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONICS DEPARTMENT Chair: Mr. Robert Modeste We pledge to take you from where you are to where you want to go. In our department, we strive to make learning as exciting and interesting as possible while not compromising the technical knowledge that the programs demand.

It is our belief that for any society to advance, it must possess a high caliber of skilled technicians especially in the fields of Electronics, Electricity, Computer Technology, and Refrigeration and Air Conditioning. As such, we are endeavoring to train well equipped technicians who will be able to cater to the needs of the society as they arise. Programs The programs offered in the Electrical/Electronic Technology Department are Refrigeration Technology, Electrical Engineering Technology, Micro Computer Technology and Consumer Electronic Technology.

The Consumer Electronic Technology Program is offered at two levels: Technician Level and the Associate Degree. The Micro computer Technology also runs at the same two levels. Presently, the other two programs are offered at the Technician level.
