The course has been constructed to dispel the “black magic” myth of EMC. The approach taken “unlocks complexity” and present EMC is an interesting and different light to the theoretical and mathematical approach often seen in text books. This is a “real world EMC engineering course!”
The course is written for engineers and managers who want to understand the fundamentals of EMC to ensure that EMC is successfully designed into a project.
