Short Description
To provide students with an opportunity to develop knowledge and understanding of the key principles and applications of Circuits & Systems, and their relevance to current developments in physics.

18 lectures, on Wednesdays at 11am and Fridays at 11am
Excluded Courses
None.
Assessment
Examination (100%)
Main Assessment In: April/May
Are reassessment opportunities available for all summative assessments? Not applicable
Reassessments are normally available for all courses, except those which contribute to the Honours classification. For non Honours courses, students are offered reassessment in all or any of the components of assessment if the satisfactory (threshold) grade for the overall course is not achieved at the first attempt. This is normally grade D3 for undergraduate students and grade C3 for postgraduate students. Exceptionally it may not be possible to offer reassessment of some coursework items, in which case the mark achieved at the first attempt will be counted towards the final course grade. Any such exceptions for this course are described below.
Course Aims
To provide students with an opportunity to develop knowledge and understanding of the key principles and applications of Circuits and Systems, and their relevance to current developments in physics.
Intended Learning Outcomes of Course
By the end of the course students will be able to demonstrate a knowledge and broad understanding of Circuits and Systems. They should be able to describe and analyse quantitatively processes, relationships and techniques relevant to the topics included in the course outline, applying these ideas and techniques to solve general classes of problems which may include straightforward unseen elements. They should be able to write down and, where appropriate, either prove or explain the underlying basis of physical laws relevant to the course topics, discussing their applications and appreciating their relation to the topics of other courses taken.
