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.

Total number of points is 100. During the semester, the student may obtain up to 40 points for 4 written tests, each 10 points. Tests are carried out on seminars and always consist of examples and theoretical questions.
The requirement for examination obtaining is the completed measurement of all laboratory tasks, elaborated computational exercises and to obtain minimally 15 points from written tests. Moreover, subject to the successful completion of the course is to pass the final exam. The total number of points achieved for completion of the course must be at least 50.
The tests and final exam verify students’ orientation in the problems of the foundations of analysis of electric and magnetic circuits, knowledge of technical terminology and the ability to describe in their own words the topics covered in the course. Test assignments, laboratory exercises, final exams are in the English language.

1) An Insight into the History of Electrical Engineering, basic terms, production and distribution of electricity.
2) Basic laws of electric circuits, computational methods, the simplification method, method of nodal voltages, method of current loops.
3) AC circuits, introduction to complex number calculus, non-rotating and rotating machines, types of distribution networks. Introduction to complex numbers.
4) Circuits in harmonic steady state, phasors, symbolic-complex method, immitances.
5) Magnetic circuits, theory of electromagnetic field, Maxwell equations, Magnetic fields in matter. Basic quantities and relations , methods of analysis of magnetic circuits , electromagnets, magnetic circuits with permanent magnets, transformers.
6) Transmission lines, primary and secondary parameters, Waves on transmission lines. Characteristic impedance, standing waves. Transient phenomena in transmission lines.

The course develops the basic knowledge of electrical engineering principles and basic circuit theory, as well as related English terminology. The course prepares the students for taking part in specialized courses in electrical engineering. The seminars extend and improve theoretical knowledge, laboratory measurements help to verify the theory in a practical way.

Participation in seminars (laboratory and computational exercises) is required. Properly excused absences can be substituted, usually in the last week of the semester.
