This course introduces students to the computer-based tools used by engineers in the course of their work. Tools include Matlab, Maple, CAD, Excel, SPSS, and C++.

This course provides a modern introduction to logic design and technology .It covers a survey of common combinational circuit components, sequential circuit design and timing analysis and use of modern HDL CAD Tools for digital systems design, synthesis, and simulation. Topics include representation and manipulation of information, combinational and sequential logic fundamentals, digital logic technology, combinational and sequential functions, finite state machines, hardware descriptive language, programmable logic devices, memories, and register transfer logic (RTL) design.

This course introduces students to how electrical circuits function. Topics include DC and AC electrical current and voltage, electrical energy, and electrical power. Circuit components such as resistors, inductors, and capacitors are explained both in terms of their underlying physics and how they influence the behavior of electric circuits. Circuit analysis techniques such as Ohm's Law, Kirchhoff's voltage and current laws,Thevenin and Norton transformations, and the superposition theorem are explained and used to solve problems. Basic electrical measurement techniques are demonstrated and applied in a series of laboratory experiments.

This course provides an introduction and methodology of linear dynamic systems in relation to discrete- and continuous-time signals. Topics include representation of systems and signals; Fourier, Laplace, and Z-transforms; and convolution. Linear systems are described in terms of inputs and outputs and expressed as transfer functions. Systems are analyzed in the time domain and frequency domain. Filtering and processing of signals will be discussed as application of the theory. System response will be modeled and visualized using simulation software.

This course covers the material properties of semiconductors, the physics of semiconductor operation, and the operating principles of diodes, bipolar and field-effect transistors, feedback and operational amplifiers and regulated power supplies. Circuit analysis techniques are applied and industry-standard tools and applications are used to model and understand the characteristics, operation, performance and limitations of fundamental electronic devices. Topics include wave-particle duality, semiconductor energy bands, formation of n and p-type carriers, p-n junctions, I-V characteristics, BJT and FET operating modes, and power regulators.

This course covers electromagnetic fields, including static electric and magnetic fields, energy storage, Maxwell's equations, conductors, insulators, transmission lines, and antennae.
