Learning activities and teaching methods
Monologic (reading, lecture, briefing)
Learning outcomes
Principal aim of the subject is make the students acquainted with theoretical and practical grounding of electrical engeneering (theory of electromagnetic field, theory of electrical circuits, electronics), electric values measurement, labour protection and EMC.
After graduation of the subject student will be able to explain away basic notions of the electrostatics, magnetic field, current field, electromagnetism and EMC including signal propagation on the long lines. Student will be able to solve simple electrical circuits. Student will be able to enlighten function of PN junction and basic semiconductor parts - diode, transistor, analog and digital IC. Student will be practically identified with basic methods of measurement including principles of labour protection with electric unit.
Prerequisites
It is hypothesized intimacy of math and physics from second school and from first summer half.

Assessment methods and criteria
Oral examination

Along the summer half and exam student must make out understanding of solver topics and ability of separate solving of basic problems from subject matter. Teacher notify concrete requirements to students during the first week of the summer half.
