Basic areas of electrical engineering

Overview

"Fundamentals of Electrical Engineering" is a main subject in the training programme for every electrical engineer. It is also an important pillar of training in related engineering degree programmes such as mechanical engineering, biomedical engineering and physics engineering.

"Basic areas of electrical engineering" include the teaching of direct and alternating current circuits as well as the study of electrostatic, electric and magnetic fields.

Basic experiments are offered to students of electrical engineering, biomedical engineering, physical engineering and technomathematics in the laboratory for basic areas of electrical engineering. These experiments are carried out by the students themselves in small groups under supervision and the results are recorded. The students describe the results of the experiments and the findings derived from them in practical reports.
