Non-refundable · One application with ranked choices
Allow approximately $1,000–$1,500 per full-time year for books and supplies and bring a suitable laptop. PPE is discussed at the start. A small electronics-parts kit is required in semester four, but the source supplies no price for it.
Use the Electronics Engineering Technology program when checking intake availability and admission. A fee from an electrical or instrumentation search result should not replace this program's international table.

SAIT assesses the documents and course equivalents for education completed outside Canada. Demonstrating English proficiency does not by itself establish that your academic subjects meet the program requirements.
Check the complete admission requirements ↗-
Mathematics
At least 60% in Math 30-1 or 75% in Math 30-2, or an accepted equivalent.
-
English and physics
At least 60% in English Language Arts 30-1 or 30-2, and at least 60% in Physics 20. Both are required.
-
English proficiency and assessment
Demonstrate English proficiency and provide an international document assessment if educated outside Canada.
English proficiency is a separate requirement
Assessment results must be from within the year before your application. A transfer or deferral can require updated results when that period has passed.

- Education in EnglishOfficial transcripts or a completed international assessment must verify at least three years of full-time secondary study in English at 12 or more hours a week, or at least two years of study taught in English at a recognized post-secondary institution, or a recognized English-taught credential from a SAIT-approved institution.
- A post-secondary English courseA credit course in English, comparative literature, communications or an equivalent at SAIT or a recognized post-secondary institution requires at least a C.
- English Language FoundationsThe SAIT route requires both COMN 155 and SPCH 155. Other recognized pathways have their own levels and assessment conditions; check the complete policy before choosing one.
An applied-research project in the final semester
Complete 60 credits across 20 required courses over four semesters. The final capstone investigates a problem and develops a proposed solution. Certified Engineering Technologist eligibility also requires two years of suitable industry experience; earning the diploma is one stage in that process.
