Description
Summary:Electronic Engineering Fundamentals (EEF) is a third-year course in the Aerospace Engineering degree program at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid. Covering analog and digital electronics, as it is the only electronic subject in the program, students learn to analyze and build electronic functions, and systems, including microcontrollers. The article presents the detailed course content, organization, references, and materials, highlighting results and challenges from the past three years. It aims to share insights with educators facing the task of teaching electronics to students without prior Electrical Engineering knowledge, emphasizing the need for early incorporation of essential concepts for proper content sequencing. Proposed improvements focus on enhancing student motivation and commitment to the subject.
