Abstract
Electronics engineering is a rapidly growing career group. Considering the Iranian 2022 slogan of the year, which was named by the Supreme Leader as knowledge-based and job-creating production, and the need to move in the direction of this slogan, this article examines new issues in the field of electronics in both associate and bachelor degrees with the approach of content coverage of topics based on knowledge-based and job-creating production. To make a more detailed investigation, a survey was also conducted among the students and professors of the electronics department of Qom Technical and Vocational University. The survey questions were checked for validity with the relative coefficient of content validity and content validity index, and for reliability with Cronbach's alpha coefficient. The results of the surveys showed that to achieve production based on knowledge and job creation and its promotion, the headings should be modified and some courses should be deleted and courses related to the labor market should be added.
