Sähköpaja is the most high-volume course that uses the Vilhon paja workshop and some 300 students complete the course annually. The course covers the topics: Basics of Arduino and other electronic components. Electrical circuits, sensors, connections and interfaces, combined with software and data networks. The course has two versions (8 ECTS - for major studies- and 5 ECTS - for minor studies).

Design Thinking and Electronic Prototyping (DTEP) is a 5 ECTS project-based learning course taught in English. The course focusses on user-centred innovation in the context of electronic products. The course belongs to the Digital Systems and Design major inside the Bachelor of Science and Technology study program. A few students are typically accepted outside this curriculum to join the course. The course takes up to 50 students per year.

Protocamp is a course where students from different fields work together on design briefs given by the industry. The 10 ECTS is very useful for advancing studies during the summer time while learning new skills in electronic prototyping. The course does not have specific skill requirements, but the students should expect to spend a lot of time at the workshop.

The Design Thinking and Advanced Prototyping (DTAP) is a 10 ECTS course that continues from there the DTEP course left off. DTAP educates more advanced prototyping techniques, including custom circuit board design. The course belongs to the Digital Systems and Design major inside the Bachelor of Science and Technology study program. The course is intended for 2nd year bachelor’s students. It takes up to 50 students per year.

Elektroniikkapaja is an advanced electronics course intended for 3rd year bachelors. It covers the following topics: Implementation alternatives of electronics; radio technology in practice, for example moving signals in frequency domain with a mixer; design and production of a circuit diagram, a printed circuit board and an electronic device; power supplies and grounding; housing of electronics; practical electronic components and choosing them; A/D and D/A conversions and their effect to signals; virtual instrumentation; programmable system-on-a-chip.

The course is targeted for master-level students. It consists of two practical antenna design tasks in Periods 1 and 2. In both of the tasks, an antenna is designed based on basic theories with the help of an electromagnetic simulator (CST Studio Suite), manufactured and the performance is evaluated with measurements (e.g., vector network analyser and MVG StarLab). Both the topics culminate with a final seminar where the design task is reviewed and the end evaluation where the achievement of learning outcomes is reflected.
