Projects

Gain extensive hands-on experience by designing, constructing and testing of four basic power electronic circuits. See previous semester project videos and pictures.

Please note that you will be spending a lot of time in the laboratory. As this may seem frustrating and difficult at the beginning of the course, the knowledge that you will achieve at the end of the semester outweigh this hardship -- if only you do it the right way and study in a prompt manner.
