INSTRUCTIONAL DURATION CREDIT(S) PREREQUISITE(S) LECTURER LOCATION TELIPHONE NO. SYNOPSIS ENGINEERING LABORATORY exposes the students to practical laboratory experiments in Electrical Technology and Engineering Mechanics. These experiments consists of collection of data through observation and experimentation, formulation and testing of theory. LEARNING OUTCOMES Upon completion of this course, students should be able to:1. conduct appropriately electrical and engineering mechanics experiments in groups according to the standard of procedures. 2. analyse critically the data of the experimental data in relation to the theoretical aspects. 3. write critically the appropriate report based on the experiment results.
