The Leadership Laboratory was established in 1994 with funding from Germany through the GTZ Foundation. It operates under the Electrical Engineering Department at the College of Engineering. The primary focus of the laboratory is to support the Electric Drive course. The laboratory aims to familiarize students with both Direct Current (DC) and Alternating Current (AC) motors. Additionally, it rovides instruction on speed control methods and the construction of closed-loop and open-loop control systems. The laboratory plays a crucial role in enhancing students' understanding of electric drives and control systems.

Skills
The laboratory aims to explore the natural and artificial properties of Direct Current (DC) and Alternating Current (AC) motors, in addition to teaching students about speed control methods for each motor, as well as starting and braking techniques. It also involves familiarizing students with various control elements in open and closed control systems. Students build multiple speed control systems and study the electrical properties of electronic components such as Transistors, Thyristors, Triacs, and Diacs in both DC and AC voltage circuits. They also construct Power Converters and understand the characteristics of each converter while visualizing their signals using an oscilloscope.
