Catalog Data: EEE 101 Introduction to Electrical and Electronics Engineering (3 cr.) Voltage, current,
Kirchoff Laws, voltage and current measurements, Ohm’s Law, resistors, diodes, half-wave rectifier, Zener
diodes, LEDs, Non-linear resistive elements, capacitors, inductors, transformers, oscilloscopes, using oscil-
loscopes to measure waveforms and i-v characteristics. Design project and a competition. There will be
seminars on the role of the electrical/electronics engineer and the current issues in the profession.

Textbook: D. White and R. Doering, Electrical Engineering Uncovered, 2n d Ed. 2001, Prentice-Hall.

Goals: The main goal is to provide the students a quick introduction to the field with hands-on lab ex-
perience. The experiments are designed to give the students a positive feeling of accomplishment, and to
invoke further curiosity and motivation toward underlying theoretical fundamentals. Lectures complement
the lab work by providing necessary analysis and synthesis techniques in a structured fashion. The course
is designed to improve self-learning and creative thinking abilities: Students will design some of their own
laboratory experiments, and complete a design project. Furthermore, there will be written and oral reports.

Topics:
