      ESPB 9.0 Status elective
      Condition
      The goal Learning about the physical basics of radiation damage and electromagnetic noise in modern electronic components and devices, along with the possible changes in the properties and functionality of these devices caused by exposure to ionizing and non-ionizing radiation.
      The outcome Ability to anticipate the effects that various types of radiation cause in electronic components, apply measures for removing or mitigating these effects, or predict the functionality of irradiated devices.
