Introduction to Electrical Engineering & Circuit Analysis

This course provides a beginner-friendly introduction to electrical engineering and explains the core concepts used in circuit analysis and electrical systems. It is designed for students and learners who want to understand how electricity behaves and how electrical circuits function.

The course begins with the concept of electric current and explains how the flow of electric charge powers electrical devices and systems. Learners will understand the relationship between electrons, charge movement, and energy transfer in circuits.

Voltage is introduced as the electrical potential difference that drives current through a circuit. The course explains how voltage sources provide energy and how voltage interacts with resistance and current in electrical systems.

A major focus is placed on current direction and the difference between electron flow and conventional current. Understanding these concepts helps learners interpret circuit diagrams and engineering calculations correctly.

The course also introduces ideal circuit elements such as resistors, capacitors, and inductors, explaining their role in controlling electrical behavior within circuits. Learners will gain a foundational understanding of circuit analysis and basic electrical principles used in engineering and electronics.

By the end of the course, learners will have a clear understanding of electrical engineering fundamentals and the essential concepts required for studying more advanced electronics and circuit design topics.
