Professional Development Courses

This course offers a comprehensive guide for implementing shielding in ways that are most effective to prevent different kinds of electromagnetic interference (EM).  It is designed for students involved in multiple areas of hardware design, including mechanical as well as electrical.  We will cover shielding for both high frequency electric fields as well as lower frequency magnetic fields.  Shielding implementation will be discussed at the board, enclosure, cabling, and integrated platform levels.  There is a lot of confusion a lot this particular topic, so lessons are reinforced with live hardware demonstrations that show these principles paying out on real hardware.  Students will have the opportunity to do shielding calculations and think deeply about the interactions being demonstrated on the bend.  This topic never fails to yield excellent interactive discussions.

As electric vehicles reshape the future of mobility, understanding rapidly evolving battery technology, a critical component of EV systems, is essential for engineers driving innovation. This course delivers a comprehensive, hands-on exploration of battery systems—from chemistry and safety to modeling, management, and second-life applications.

Learn how battery management systems control, protect, and optimize battery packs through practical modeling of estimation and safety logic.
