    • account for the historical development in the field of electronics
  • Recommended preliminary courses

    MEK1000 Mathematics 1000, ELPE1300 Electric circuits, ELTS2100 Electronics and ELI2300 Dynamic systems.

  • Required preliminary courses

    Theory teaching, laboratory work. PC exercises on are included in the lab. Theoretical exercises are voluntary, but part of the curriculum.

  • Learning outcomes

    The following coursework is compulsory and must be approved before the student can sit the exam:

    • Four laboratory exercises

    The protocol must be approved at the end of each laboratory exercise before leaving the laboratory.

  • Content

    The course includes the following topics:

    • The Fourier transform and signal processing
    • Ultrasound imaging
    • X-ray imaging
    • Magnetic resonance imaging
