Engineering management of e-labortory

E-laboratories are having increasing applications all over the world. Engineering management of such laboratories has to start from clear definition of the purpose. This is followed by the pre-design arrangements; then to the various aspects of the design. After running such e-lab courses, the experience gained has to be evaluated. Different aspects of management of various steps are discussed in this paper. An example for e-lab experiments in electrical engineering is given. Evaluation of understanding of students using e-lab compared to normal labs is discussed. Online laboratories, however, are not as mature as online courses yet.
