The student is able to:
- Describe the properties of ideal and real circuit elements;
- Apply the analysis of linear circuits in stationary and harmonic steady state;
- Calculate the characteristic values of time-varying voltage and current waveforms and describe the principle and the importance of harmonic analysis of signals;
- Describe methods for solving of nonlinear non-conservative circuits and apply them to simple circuits;
- Describe the basic values and laws of magnetic circuits as they are used to calculate the parameters of specified magnetic circuit;
- Describe the parameters of transmission lines and explain the importance of secondary line parameters.
Students will be equipped with the appropriate technical terminology in English.

The subject knowledge on the secondary school level is required. In the range of the used mathematical tools students should be able to:
- editing mathematical expressions;
- calculate the solution of simple linear equations;
- use mathematics in the field of complex numbers;
- apply the basics of matrix calculus;
- calculate the derivative, definite and indefinite integrals of simple linear functions of one variable and basic trigonometric functions.

Teaching methods depend on the type of course unit as specified in the article 7 of BUT Rules for Studies and Examinations. Teachning methods include lectures and seminars. Course is taking advantage of e-learning (Moodle) system.

In all, each student can win 100 points. This total consists of the following partial assessment bands:
- up to 30 points for 3 written tests, 10 points each (the tests are taken in the seminars);
- up to 15 points for a presentation;
- up to 55 points for the final written test.

The pass limit is 50 points.
