Featured Courses
Circuit Analysis DC/AC
Learn both DC and AC circuit theory, including Ohm’s and Kirchoff’s laws for analysis of series and parallel circuits. Computer circuit simulation of series-parallel, ladder and bridge networks in both DC and AC are analyzed. Resonance and frequency response are included along with some discussion of AC power and transformers. Lab experiments support the theory and obtain measurement skills.
Digital Principles
Develop the fundamentals of the binary system. Circuit implementation from Boolean functions and map minimization. Course includes study of combinational logic, sequential logic circuits, flip-flops, counters and shift register. Lab enables application of theory to practical digital circuits.
Routing I
Basic routing principles in a network environment, supplemented with industry-standard labs, such as those provided by CISCO. Focuses on network terminology and protocols, local area networks (LANs), wide area networks (WANs), Open System Interconnection (OSI) networking model, cabling, cabling tools, routers, router programming, Ethernet, Internet Protocol addressing/subnetting and network standards.
