Aims

This course provides to the graduate in Computer Engineering, basic skills that allows understand the phenomena of theoretical analysis of electrical circuits in DC and AC steady state, the basic principles of electromagnetism.
They are also elementary skills concerning of the principle of operation for some common types of electrical machines. They are also taught skills in interpreting schematics of electrical installations. As well as some fundamental notions of wiring computer rooms.

Program

Assessment method

Exams and special assignments

Method of Evaluation
The student have two options:
Option 1: (TE + LAB)
Two tests during the semester (average 10 values). Laboraty work (average 10 values).
Option 2: (EX + LAB).
The final written exam at the final of the semester (minimum of 10 values). Laboraty work (average 10 values).
Final grade
The final grade (NF) is given by:
1st option: NF = 0.70 TE + 0.30. LAB
2nd option: NF = 0.70 EX + 0.30 LAB
