IV. Student Learning Outcomes

Upon completion of this course, a student will be able to:

• Apply Ohm’s Law and Kirchoff’s Laws to analyze circuits containing independent and dependent voltage and current sources, resistors, inductors, and capacitors.
• Apply basic circuit analysis tools, including voltage and current dividers, node voltage methods, mesh current methods, source transformations, Thevenin and Norton equivalent circuits, max power transfer, and superposition.
• Explain RC, RL, and RLC circuits including natural and step responses with direct and sinusoidal sources.
