| Objectives: |
The main aim of this compulsory course is to introduce the fundamental
concepts of electrical and electronics engineering. Starting with the structure of
an atom, the students will understand the mechanisms underlying the
electricity; learn the concepts as the direct and alternating currents,
measurement devices, semiconductor materials and devices, digital electronics
and logic circuits while studying examples and exercises. They will solve
simple problems, which will lead them to more complicated and concrete
problems throughout the following 7 semesters. |
