Description:
COURSE GOALS: The main goal of the course Electrical Engineering is to further develop student understanding of the basics of electromagnetism and their application in electrical engineering. Students will develop skills of analyzing electrical circuits, describe the basics of measurements in electrical engineering, understand the fundamental principles of electrical machines and of electric power system.

LEARNING OUTCOMES AT THE LEVEL OF THE PROGRAMME:
1. KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
1.1. demonstrate a thorough knowledge and understanding of the fundamental laws of classical and modern physics
1.2. demonstrate a thorough knowledge and understanding of the most important physics theories (logical and mathematical structure, experimental support, described physical phenomena
1.3. demonstrate a thorough knowledge and understanding of basic concepts in techniques
2. APPLYING KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
2.1. identify and describe important aspects of a particular physical phenomenon or problem
2.2. identify and describe important aspects of techniques and their applications
2.3. recognize and follow the logic of arguments, evaluate the adequacy of arguments and construct well supported arguments
2.4. use mathematical methods to solve standard physics problems
3. MAKING JUDGMENTS
3.1. develop a critical scientific attitude towards research in general, and in particular by learning to critically evaluate arguments, assumptions, abstract concepts and data
4. COMMUNICATION SKILLS
4.1. communicate effectively with pupils and colleagues
4.2. present complex ideas clearly and concisely
5. LEARNING SKILLS
5.1. search for and use professional literature as well as any other sources of relevant information

LEARNING OUTCOMES SPECIFIC FOR THE COURSE:
1. explain and apply fundamental physical ideas, models and laws related to electricity and magnetism
2. solve conceptual and numerical problems in electromagnetism
3. analyze simple and complex DC and AC circuits
4. state and explain the standards and measurements in electrical engineering
5. explain the basic principle of operation of electrical machines (synchronous / asynchronous and DC motors, transformers)
6. state and explain the basics of the production, transmission, distribution and consumption of electricity
7. critically evaluate data on production and consumption of electricity
8. state and apply safety measures in using electricity at home
