Learning outcomes of the course unit

The course in ” Electrical Engineering and Electronics“ enables students to brush their knowledge acquired during the previous study and primarily extend the knowledge in this branch. The emphasis will be put on practical verification of the theoretical knowledge at laboratory practices.

Prerequisites

Basic electric and magnetic quantities (electric charge and electric current, vectors of electromagnetic field, integral quantities - electric voltage, magnetic voltage, electric induction flux, magnetic induction flux). Fundamentals of electromegnetics (Coulomb’s law, Biot-Savart’s law, Faraday’s law, Amper’s law). Electric and magnetic properties of matters.

Co-requisites

Not applicable.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Teaching methods depend on the type of course unit as specified in the article 7 of BUT Rules for Studies and Examinations.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

The course-unit credit requirements: it is necessary to meet the prescribed and advised requirements (the compulsory attendance at the laboratory practices and gaining the prescribed score during the term). The examination has written and oral parts. The students will answer 10 questions during the written examination, which will be scored – the maximum score is 100. The oral examination will verify the student’s knowledge of topics presented during the term.

Aims

The aim of the course is to familiarize students with the principles of modern electrical engineering and electronics, which are needed for the study of other engineering disciplines and, in particular, for the future practice in electrical engineering.

Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences

Lectures with checked attendance: Check the attendance at the beginning of the lectures at the laboratory, scored classification of the protocol processed and based on the laboratory practice, scored classification based on two check tests during a term. The students can make up for the laboratory practice with excused absence during the term in the other study groups, or the compensatory laboratory practices will be announced at the end of the term by the Department Management.
