About the Course:

This DeCal course will serve as a broad introductory overview of the field of Electrical Engineering. It will cover basic concepts such as voltage, current, resistance, capacitance, inductance, and transistors from an electrical engineering perspective and will focus on hands on measurements of these properties. Instead of focusing on heavy mathematics, we will build many circuits in order to gain a more intuitive feel for the field. Students will also learn the art of soldering in constructing circuits.

This DeCal course will be facilitated by the officers of the IEEE (Institute of Electronic and Electrical Engineers) student branch. The first half of the course will focus on the above stated electrical engineering properties and their measurements, while the second half will involve applied circuit construction design. For example, last semester we built digital thermometers for the final project.

The material presented in this DeCal is suitable for any students curious about the field of electrical engineering and requires no previous engineering or math experience at Berkeley.

How to Enroll:

Enrollment will be conducted during our first DeCal class.

No EE or math experience is requiered or needed.

Students who have completed EE40 or EE100 or any higher ciruits class should not enroll as this DeCal would repeat what you already know.
