Objetivos
The course unit of Electrotechnics is a sciences engineering field base. The learning of the methods and physical concepts underlying it, aims to develop in students fundamental skills that allow them to understand the electromagnetic phenomena and master the main techniques of electrical circuits analysis in direct and alternating current.
Resultados de aprendizagem e competências
The student, at the end of this course should be able to:
1- Understand/explain the fundamentals of electrostatics.
2- Describe the effects of stationary current and analyze direct current electrical circuits.
3- Understand/explain the fundamentals of magnetostatics.
4- Describe the effects of a variable magnetic field.
5- Analyze sinusoidal alternating single-phase circuits in steady state.
6- Perform laboratory practices to consolidate and complement theoretical knowledge.

Métodos de ensino e atividades de aprendizagem
The teaching methodology used, in the context of theoretical-practical classes, is based on the application of various active learning techniques aiming at greater involvement and autonomy of students in the construction of their knowledge. In laboratory classes, the student will have the opportunity to carry out laboratory work.Software

1- The continuous assessment regimeStudents who intend to attend the UC under continuous assessment are subject to 75% class attendance and are required to carry out all assessments of the two components:
- Theoretical-practical component (Tp) is evaluated by three tests (T). The component grade is given by the weighted average of the mini-tests and form according to:
Tp = 0.35 T1 + 0.35 T2 + 0.3 T3;
- Laboratory component (L) with mandatory laboratory work. The evaluation of the laboratories is composed by the performance in class and the documents presented of the different laboratory tests that verify the concepts given in the chapter "DIRECT CURRENT CIRCUIT ANALYSIS".
2- Assessment regime by exams with mandatory laboratory workStudents who choose the assessment system by exams will take a written test in which all the subjects corresponding to the Tp component will be evaluated. Examination tests are carried out at scheduled times at School level.
Fórmula de cálculo da classificação final
Final grade (NF) under continuous assessment of the subject is given by:
NF = 0.7 Tp + 0.3 L
The final grade (NF) in assessment by exams will be the classification obtained at the time of the exam (NE) and the one obtained in the mandatory Laboratory component (L) or equivalent as;
NF = 0.7 NE + 0.7 L
Students who have obtained NF ≥9.5 values will be approved with the final classification (NF) determined by rounding up to units.
Observações
By the end of the second week of classes, students covered by special statutes (student worker, association manager, high-level athletes, etc.) must inform the unit course responsible for their specific situation and respective implications for the evaluations.The contents and teaching materials to support the study can be found on the Electrotechnics page on moodle.
