Common Limitations or Challenges
This syllabus provides a high-level overview and *does not* contain the actual course content, detailed explanations of circuit analysis techniques, or worked examples. It outlines the topics to be covered but doesn’t provide the in-depth instruction itself. It also doesn’t include the specific problems assigned for homework or the questions on quizzes and exams. The syllabus is a plan, and the instructor reserves the right to make adjustments as needed, which would be communicated to enrolled students.
