Course summary

Many modern products, from washing machines to motor vehicles, operate on electrical or electronic subsystems. These often contain digital and microprocessor-based circuits, sensors and control systems that sense and control the environment and may control large amounts of electrical power – for example traction control in electric locomotives. These and other areas, such as electrical power transmission and conversion, constitute the subject of electrical and electronic engineering.
