Assigned Department Objectives
Teaching Method
Outline:
In this course, students will design and implement systems using the knowledge and techniques of electrical and electronic engineering that they acquired previously. The aim of this class is to foster engineers with respect for others and high cooperativeness and leadership by conducting experiments in groups.
It also aims at acquiring presentation skills and written expressions necessary for scientific reports through presentations and reports.
Style:
Students will design and implement systems in PBL format, focusing on amplifier circuits using transistors.
They will work in groups of four to five, and give presentations and submit reports as appropriate.
Each group should voluntarily think and prepare/pre-study for the group work.
Notice:
Students will not receive a passing grade unless they give all specified presentations and submit reports by the due date.
Precautions regarding the experiments will be given during the first week. The content of subjects already taken may be needed, so do review. Students must pay attention to everything from taking roll-call to cleaning the lab and putting away the equipment.
Students who miss 1/3 or more of classes will not be eligible for evaluation.
