Abstract

This project describes the efforts towards developing an interdisciplinary laboratory to reinforce hands-on experience of engineering students. The laboratory is based on the Allen-Bradley's® (AB) SLC-500 family; combining them with resources that are typically found at an Electronic Engineering (EE) laboratory. Such devices are used on programmed practical assignments and applied for teaching Instrumentation Engineering concepts. The project is implemented on a junior Bachelors course for Biomedical and Electronic Engineering students, having a good acceptance level.
