The Colorado School of Mines Writing Center was a key element of that support, witha goal that year to drastically increase graduate student services through programming and one-on-one consultations.

While DC generators may not be the most likely machine a practicing engineer will encounter, it is felt that they provide students with a simpler introduction to machines and controllers as compared to AC or DC motors. The topic of DC generator voltage control leads naturally to DC motor speed control, AC generator voltage control and finally AC motor speed control.
