The aim of this course is for students to use the principles of operation and applications of semiconductor devices: bipolar diodes, transistors and field-effect transistors. It also includes an introduction to computer-aided modeling and simulation of analog circuits.

In this laboratory, students will be able to use methods and procedures to measure amounts such as voltage, current, resistance, capacitance and inductance. They will also observe the behavior of RL, RC, and RLC circuits as well as the internal characteristics of transformers. Additionally, they will carry out efficiency and regulation simulations in single-phase transformers, blocked-rotor tests and void test in induction motors. They will also do Curves of Par versus rpm on wound rotor induction motors and squirrel cages.

Upon completion of this course, students will be able to solve problems that involve discrete variables, multiple objectives, serial decisions, evolution problems of a system through time and waiting phenomena. They will also be able to apply basic concepts intervening in statistical simulations.

This course aims to have students observe and identify the mechanical properties of materials in a practical manner, based on their internal structure.

This course aims for students to compute the mechanical properties of materials through the use of destructive tests.

Students will be able to solve problems involving particles and rigid bodies in static equilibrium by using a vectorial approach to the relation between the forces acting on them.

The aim of this course is to acquaint students with the different models used in marketing decisions that support the development and maintenance of competitive selling.

The aim of this course is for students to achieve an undersstanding and appreciation for retail sales, in order to develop strategies that help retailers in obtaining competitive advantages and growth opportunities, in their relationship with the consumption market.

The aim of this course is for students to develop skills that enable the understanding of organizational structure and the role of the sales managers in a company's marketing strategy; including market analysis, the selection, hiring, and motivation of sales people, the establishment of sales territories and quotas, demand forecasts, compensation and the allocation of sales activities.
