Introduction to Electrical Engineering

Catalog description

This is an introductory course that incorporates labs and project based learning. The course uses the IEEE® Code of Ethics to apply ethics to engineering scenarios, as well as research the Electrical Engineering field and apply engineering design principles that will be used in Electrical Engineering courses. Students will examine and explore various electrical engineering concepts and components and use them to build working projects that sense temperature, read switches, write data to displays, drive LEDs, and generate audio signals. Students will use graphical system software to verify project performance. NOTE: This course requires the student to purchase additional materials that are not covered by the book grant. Please refer to the Course Materials section for additional details. IEEE® is a registered trademark of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc.
