What you'll learn

This skill development course introduces students to the fundamental concepts of Electrical and Electronics Engineering through an exciting hands-on approach using Arduino. From understanding voltage, current, and basic semiconductor devices to implementing logic circuits and sensor-based applications, learners will gain both theoretical knowledge and practical skills. The integration of Arduino-based projects bridges the gap between classroom concepts and real-world applications, making electronics interactive, visual, and easy to grasp. Ideal for beginners, this course builds a strong foundation for future study or project development in electronics, embedded systems, and automation.
