Credits: 4 (3,1,2) Prerequisite: EE 211
This course is an introduction to Power Electronics. It enables the student to understand the
basic Power Electronics components, operations, design, and the analysis of basic power
electronics converter circuits. The course is focused on the applications of the power converter
in various sectors e.g. industrial, electric grid, renewable energy, microgrid, electric vehicle etc.
In addition, the course covers the basic characteristics, control scheme and applications of
power semiconductor devices and circuits.

EE 322 Microprocessors design
Credits: 4 (3,1,2) Prerequisite: EE 221, EE 211
This course introduces microprocessor architecture and microcomputer systems, including
memory and input/output interfacing. Topics include structured language programming, bus
architecture, bus cycle types, I/O systems, memory systems, interrupts, and other related
topics. Upon completion, students should be able to interpret, analyze, verify, and troubleshoot
fundamental microprocessor circuits and programs using appropriate techniques and test
equipment.

EE 332 Control System
Credits: 3 (3,1,0) Prerequisite: EE 231
Introduction to feedback control systems. Block diagram and signal flow graph representation.
Mathematical modeling of physical systems. Stability of linear control systems. Time-domain
and frequency-domain analysis tools and performance assessment. Lead and lag compensatory
design. Proportional, integral, and derivative control.

EE 341 Electromagnetics Fundamentals
Credits: 3 (3,1,0) Prerequisite: EE 201, MATH 225
This module is designed to introduce the electromagnetic fields. Coulomb's law, Gauss's law,
electrical potential, dielectric materials capacitance, boundary value problems, Biot-Savart law,
Ampere's law, Lorentz force equation, magnetic materials, magnetic inductance, time varying
fields and Maxwell's equations.

EE 351 Communication System:
Credits: 4(3,1,2) Prerequisite: EE 211, EE 231

This course focuses on continuous-wave modulation, which is the basic operation of analog
communication systems. It gives the student an insight and understanding of signals
classifications, noise, Fourier series, Fourier transform, spectrum analysis, and explores their
applications in the context of analog communication systems. We cover thoroughly the
generation and reception of double-side band, single side-band, vestigial side-band, angle
modulation signals.
