The paper presents the way in which the teaching activities relating with the subject of Electromagnetic Compatibility were enhanced through applying some original methods of learner involvement. A brief history on this subject taught at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science of Transilvania University of Braşov is presented along with the course content. The actions proposed for enhanced involvement include fieldwork and mini-projects. The mini-projects were approached through the PBL-method (Project Based Learning). Specific questionnaires were used for data collection. The students were asked to express their opinions by completing these questionnaires at both the beginning and at the end of the course period. The obtained results were evaluated by solving a common problem area using specific methods depending on the field of study pursued by the students. The obtained results opened new horizons in developing and applying teaching methods based on learning through new projects and communication, intended for increasing the students' degree of interest and satisfaction. The results provide the possibility of evaluating the differences at the level of academic performance depending on the students' field of study. The acquired knowledge allowed for the implementation of several solutions for improving the teaching activity, thereby offering better opportunities for the integration of the students in the labour market. © 2014 IEEE.
