Power electronics technology began with silicon rectifier devices in the late 1950s and early 1960s, and its development has gone through rectifier era, inverter era and frequency converter era, which promoted the application of power electronics technology in many new fields. The power semiconductor composite devices with high frequency, high voltage and high current, represented by power MOSFET and IGBT, developed in the late 1980s and early 1990s, indicate that the traditional power electronics technology has entered the modern power electronics era.
Employment prospects of this major:
Some graduates majoring in electronic technology are admitted to master's degree for further study, and some go abroad to study for master's degree. Other employment channels in society mainly include: the development and design of network software, the research and development of network equipment, the design of electronic information products, the maintenance and management of communication networks, and the integration of information systems.
After graduation, students can engage in the design, application development and technical management of electronic equipment and information systems. For example, being an electronic engineer, designing and developing some electronic and communication equipment; Be a software engineer, design and develop all kinds of hardware-related software; Being a project supervisor and planning some large-scale systems requires high experience and knowledge; You can also continue to study as a teacher and engage in scientific research.
