2   To have a vivid understanding of Ohm's law, Kirchoff's current and voltage laws and Telegen's and Norton's theorems, linearity and superposition principles
3   To have a concrete understanding of equivalent element and equivalent circuit concepts, Thevenin's and Norton's equivalence theorems
4   To be able to use Node Voltage and Mesh Current Methods in order to analyze resistive
5   To be able to calculate Thevenin's and Norton's equivalents of a circuit
6   To be able to analyze, design and construct operational amplifier circuits using derived analysis techniques
7   To be able to use graph-theory based techniques including loop and cut-set analysis in order to analyze resistive circuits
8   To have a concrete understanding of two-port networks

Assessment Criteria

Students ability to make calculations in course outcomes are evaluated using 2 midterm and 1 final examination. Their ability to use the information and capture the concepts in applications are evaluated in 10 laboratory experiments for which they have to prepare technica reports. Midterms consist 15% each, Laboratory consists 20% and final examination consists 50% of the final grade
