Browse Hierarchy ECS431U: Engineering Skills and Practice

Back to EM-EECS-ELEC: Department of Electronic Engineering
The module gives an introduction to basic circuit modelling techniques, simulation, prototyping and measurements using bench-top and virtual (software-based) instruments. The module will cover Ohm's Law, Kirchoff's Circuit Laws, characterisation of linear and non-linear components, analogue and digital signals, power sources, lab safety. Students will work in groups on a range of short, small-scale projects, which will be assessed through group demos and presentations. The module will also discuss topics in professional ethics in engineering practice based on published code of practice by the Royal Academy of Engineering and the IET; sustainability challenges for electronic design and in particular-e-waste and end-of-product recycling; and topics in project management. A range of tasks will guide the students through literature research and technical writing process, thus developing the competence in technical writing - a key employability skill.
