Description
This course will introduce students to mathematical principals in an electrical context in order to understand their relevance in the electrical field. Electricity is the movement of electrons which involves two fundamental phenomena: electric charge and electric current. Students will learn basic math principals in arithmetic, notations, numbering systems, measurements, conversions, formulas and equations, using Kirchhoff and Ohm’s Law. Basic electronics will be introduced through terminology and the use of electronic devices and components. Resistors, diodes, transistors, and capacitors will be included, as well as, hands-on electrical/electronic projects using computer-aided models and integrated mathematics will enables students to conceptualize events taking place in an AC and DC circuit.
Prerequisites: MTH-113. Offered: Fall, Spring.
