This module assists aspiring IT entrepreneurs in developing great ideas into great companies. With strong economies presenting rich opportunities for new venture creation, and challenging economic times presenting the necessity for many to make their own job, the need to develop the skills to develop and act on innovative business opportunities is ever present.
Using proven content, methods, and models for new venture opportunity assessment and analysis, students will learn how to enhance their entrepreneurial mindset and develop their functional skill sets to see and act entrepreneurially. The initial steps to creating a business plan are examined as well. Our goal is to demystify the startup process, and to help you build the skills to identify and act on innovative opportunities now, and in the future.
This module will as well demonstrate to students how to secure funding for their company. It will demystify key financing concepts to give IT aspiring entrepreneurs a guide to secure funding.
This module allows in the first part student to know the classification of Passive electronic components as resistors, capacitors and inductors. It then covers Number systems, Boolean algebra, combinational logic circuits and sequential circuit analysis and design. The last part concerning Electrical Engineering will introduce AC circuits, Generation, Transmission, Distribution of Electrical Energy and Electrical Machines.
Having successfully completed the module, students should be able to demonstrate knowledge and understanding of: Passive electronic components, Concepts of digital electronic Engineering, Concepts of Electrical Engineering. Having successfully completed the module, students should be able to: Handle the number systems, in particular Binary Number system and Boolean algebra., Analyse and design combinational logic circuits and sequential circuits, Explain the working principles and applications of Electrical Engineering and Electrical Machines
This course aims to equip the student with a basic understanding of modern power semiconductor devices. It is also intended for students who may want to work in environments where all aspects of the design, application and maintenance of power electronic converter circuits are envisaged. The course will familiarize students with the many diverse power semiconductor devices and their ancillary control circuits at both low and high power levels and prepare them with the requisite design and performance analysis skills for some of these circuits.
In this course, we examine how humans respond and adapt machines to their everyday routines. This course will teach about the importance of the human-computer interface in the design and development of things people use. It will discuss the capabilities and limits of computers and other related systems, and discuss how that affects design and implementation decisions. The course will be a balance of perceptual/psychological and computer science elements. This course includes the design, improve, implementation and evaluation of user interfaces for computers and other complex, electronic equipment. Topics covered will include interface design, human factors, cognitive psychology, robotics, and wearable technologies.
This course makes the student understand the principles of Radar and its use in military and civilian environment and to make familiar with navigational aids available for navigation of aircrafts and ships.
