Modern Laboratory-Based Education for Power Electronics and Electric Machines

Power electronics and motor drives are appropriate subjects for an advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate course. The subject is largely application-driven but draws from a broad knowledge base including basic circuits and electronics, control systems, power systems, and semiconductor devices. For many students, a power electronics laboratory can provide an early experience in synthesis, requiring them to use knowledge across their full curriculum with close attention to detail.
