Spring 2026 Laboratory Lecture Distance Learning Upper Division
Lecture sessions provide the student with background information on the design and management of projects. Formal lectures cover, for example, design for manufacturability, design for quality, test and evaluation, reliability and ethics, patents and copyrights, plus case studies. During the laboratory sessions, the students work in teams on challenging open-ended electrical engineering project that draws on previous coursework. Projects routinely involve standard design facets (such as consideration of alternative solutions, feasibility considerations, and detailed system descriptions) and include a number of realistic constraints (such as cost, safety, reliability, and aesthetics). Lectures require use of the I-Clicker system.
Learning Outcomes1Apply knowledge obtained in earlier coursework and to obtain new knowledge necessary to design and test a system, component, or process to meet desired needs.
2Understand the engineering design process.
3Function on an interdisciplinary team.
4Acquire an awareness of professional and ethical responsibility.
5Develop effective communication skills, both oral and written.
