Inter Campus Competition Sees Students Go Full Circuit

First and second year students from the Level 3 Advanced Electronics courses in Bangor and Lisburn went head-to-head in the annual Electronics Inter Campus Competitions.

For round one of the competitions, the students were tasked with producing a schematic from a hand drawn wiring diagram.   The second round involved building the schematic on a breadboard.

Ben Hayler, (Lisburn), from Lisburn Campus took first place; second place went to Chloe Woods (Newtownards), from Bangor Campus; third place went to Calum Kerr (Ballinderry Lower), from Lisburn Campus and James Welsh (Bangor), from Bangor Campus took fourth place.   The students all received vouchers for their efforts.

Runner-up prizes of SERC Advanced Electronic hoodies were presented to Corey McCormick (Newtownards) and Joe Orr (Comber), both from Bangor Campus; and Aaron Hood (Lisburn) and Daniel Porter (Moneyslane) both from Lisburn Campus.

Alison Black, Advanced Electronics Lecturer said, “It was a fantastic competition.   Congratulations to the winners and well done to all the students for putting their skills to the test.”
