Summary

In this first year foundation course, students are introduced to the field of Electrical and Electronic Engineering and are provided with the chance to cultivate and showcase their proficiency in the fundamental knowledge and skills essential for functioning as an Electrical and Electronic Engineering Associate. The course learning outcomes allow… For more content click the Read More button below.

The course learning outcomes allow you to demonstrate achievement against the program graduate capabilities and elements at a foundation level. This course, together with the other courses in the engineering program core and major deliver learning to satisfy the program graduate capabilities and elements, mapped to the Engineers Australia Stage 1 Competency Standards.

The course is delivered through a series of on-demand, active learning modules. Each module is assessed separately and needs to be successfully completed to pass the course. Your learning is supported through our Learning Communities that provide you with opportunities for synchronous and asynchronous engagement through workshops and discussion forums.

This course has listed co-requisites. The intention is that students complete these courses as pre-requisites (i.e. study them in an earlier trimester) to be fully prepared for this course. However, these courses are available as co-requisites where a student is repeating the pre-requisite course and is confident that they can successfully proceed with this course at the same time. Students need to be in the Electrical & Electronic Engineering Major, Engineering Teaching Area (BSED) or the Computing Major (BSCI) to enrol in this unit.

SynopsisThis course provides you with an opportunity to develop and demonstrate mastery at a foundation level of the underpinning knowledge and skills required to operate as an Electrical & Electronic Engineering Associate. The areas covered by this course include electronic components, circuit analysis and design, signals, filters, schematics, simulation tools, standards, and legislative framework.
