Teaching Method

Outline:
General or Specialized : Specialized
Field of learning : Electrical and Electronic
Required, Elective, etc. : Elective Must complete subjects
Foundational academic disciplines : Engineering / Electric and electronic

Relationship with Educational Objectives :
This class is equivalent to "(3) Acquire deep foundation knowledge of the major subject area".

Relationship with JABEE programs :
The main goals of learning / education in this class are "(A),(A-2)".

Course outline :
High Voltage Engineering is the study to understand "the phenomena of the breakdown mechanism under the high electric field condition" , "the devices used to generate high voltage" and "the devices used to measure high voltage". To achieve this purpose, prior specialized knowledge is required. In this lecture, the relationship between the study of High Voltage Engineering and the students' prior specialized knowledge will be integrated.
Style:
Course method :
This course is held in the second semester (16 weeks), and each lecture is 90 minutes in a week. The class is advanced by the lecture in line with the text book.

Grade evaluation method :
There are assignments that must be submitted.
Exams (70%)+ Portfolio (30%).
Examinations will be conducted a total of 2 times, and the evaluation ratios will be the same. The textbook can be used in the examination, but the detail condition about it is instructed every time.
Re-examination may be possible but will depend on the situation of the student.
Notice:
Precautions on the enrollment :
This is a "class that requires study outside of class hours". Classes are offered for 15 hours per credit, but 30 credit hours are required in addition to this. Follow the instructions of your instructor for these studies.

Course advice :
Read the textbooks and read aloud before class to see if there are any parts you do not understand.

Foundational subjects : Electrical and Electronic Circuits (2nd year), Basic Electric (2nd), Electrical and Electronic Measurements Ⅰ, Ⅱ(2nd, 3rd), Electric Circuit Ⅰ, Ⅱ(3rd, 4th), Electromagnetism Ⅰ, Ⅱ(3rd, 4th)

Related subjects : Electrical Application and Environment (4th year), Electrical and Electronic Materials (5th), Graduation Thesis(5th)

Attendance advice :
Take notes during the lecture to aid your understanding. Prior knowledge should be considered and engaged while attending this course.
If you are late, you will be treated as absent after 20 minutes.
