Seminar on Electrical Engineering

Lecturer:

Tutor:

Supervisor:

Department of Electric Drives and Traction

Synopsis:

The course aims to enable the students from non-electrotechnical secondary schools to get deeper knowledge and practical experience and skills in applying physics information about electrotechnics in electric power devices. On practical calculations, experiments and their evaluation the usage of basic physical laws and propositions is shown.

Requirements:

To obtain an assesment at least 70% presence is essential plus the elaboration of 1 individually written technical report.

Syllabus of lectures:

Syllabus of tutorials:

Seminars are organized like workshops: the discussed matter is immediately practicized.
