Electrical and Computer Engineering · 4 units · Undergraduate upper division (100-199)
Limited to senior Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering majors. Advanced systems design integrating communications, control, and signal processing subsystems. Introduction to advanced topics related to projects through lecture and laboratories. Open-ended projects vary each offering. Student teams create high-performance designs that manage trade-offs among subsystem components, including cost, performance, ease of use, and other real-world constraints. Societal implications of such systems. Professional technical writing instruction and assignments. Oral and written presentation of project results. In Progress grading (credit to be given only on completion of course 180DW).
