Electrical engineers play a role in creating the products individuals use in their everyday lives. From entertainment to the appliances we use to cook, clean and run our lives, an electrical engineer was likely involved. These professionals can be involved in several stages, product design and development to testing, and later, in the manufacturing process for electrical and electronic equipment. At the design stage, electrical engineers spend time researching how electricity will work to power a new product or device. They try to figure out how to best design the power supply and how that power supply will work within the new product. They create prototypes, test them out, and then make any necessary changes before moving into full production. Course Description This course provides an integrated introduction to electrical engineering and computer science, taught using substantial laboratory experiments with mobile robots. Our primary goal is for you to learn to appreciate and use the fundamental design principles of modularity and abstraction in a variety of contexts from electrical engineering and computer science. Our second goal is to show you that making mathematical models of real systems can help in the design and analysis of those systems. Finally, we have the more typical goals of teaching exciting and important basic material from electrical engineering and computer science, including modern software engineering, linear systems analysis, electronic circuits, and decision-making. Course Format This course has been designed for independent study. It includes all of the materials you will need to understand the concepts covered in this subject. The materials in this course include: Lecture videos from Spring 2011, taught by Prof. Dennis Freeman Recitation videos, developed for OCW Scholar by teaching assistant Kendra Pugh Course notes Software and design labs Homework assignments and additional exercises Nano-quizzes and exams with solutions
