Additionally, the Electronics Engineering Technology program works closely with representatives from industry to help guide the curriculum. The EET Industrial Advisory Board meets semiannually and is comprised of professionals from industry.  The current members are: 

• Vern Kissner, Utility Technology Solutions 
• Chris Springer, Zirkle Fruit Co. 
• Cassandra Armstrong, Rosemount Specialty Products 
• Kevin Bremer, Boeing 
• Cary Roberts, Michelsen Packaging Co. 
• Darrell Niver, Power Grid Engineering LLC 
• Eric Krispin, Casne Engineering 
• Kevin Peterson, Form Factor Inc. 

Many of the EET courses require a fee for labs and electronics usage. Please see the course catalogue through MyCWU to know which apply to you before registering for classes. Contact your instructor for help.
