Objectives
To prepare the students to effectively link theory with practice and application and to demonstrate background of the theoretical aspects. To prepare the students to generate and analyze data using experiments and to apply elements of data analysis. To prepare the students to have hands on experiments and to have exposure to equipment and machines. To prepare the students to solve problems including design elements and related to their course work.
