Electronics engineering technologists frequently:

• Sit for long periods of time.
• Use their hands to handle, control, or feel objects, tools, or controls.

It is important for electronics engineering technologists to be able to:

• See details of objects that are less than a few feet away.
• See differences between colors, shades, and brightness.

• Understand the speech of another person.
• [ More ]
• Speak clearly so listeners can understand.
• Hold the arm and hand in one position or hold the hand steady while moving the arm.

It is not as important, but still necessary, for electronics engineering technologists to be able to:

• See details of objects that are more than a few feet away.
• Use one or two hands to grasp, move, or assemble objects.
• Make quick, precise adjustments to machine controls.
• Hear sounds and recognize the difference between them.
• [ More ]
• Move two or more limbs together (for example, two arms, two legs, or one leg and one arm) while remaining in place.
