EE408 (Version: 2003 2) COURSE DETAILS (ARCHIVED)


COURSE TITLE EFF YEAR EFF TERM DEPARTMENT CREDIT HOURS
EE408 ELECTRICAL ENGRG DESIGN SEM 2003 2 Electrical Engineering and Computer Science 3.0 (BS=0.0, ET=3.0, MA=0.0)
SCOPE
This course provides a team design experience in electrical engineering that integrates math, science, and engineering into a comprehensive system. The system design focuses on electronics, but may also include sub-systems from any other field or discipline. Projects must result in a product that demonstrates significant cadet creativity and performs within pre-determined or negotiated constraints. Course requirements include periodic in-progress reviews, written and oral reports, and completion of the iterative design, build, and test cycle for a functional system. Factors such as feasibility and economics must be assessed. This course also includes a seminar that meets once each week jointly with all First Class cadets majoring in electrical engineering. The seminar topics will address the concerns of professional engineers such as engineering ethics, economics and licensing procedures. Design methodologies, reliability, and laboratory safety and procedures will also be taught in this seminar. DOD initiatives and their effect on the electrical engineering community will be presented. Much of the seminar material will be presented by guest lecturers from the military, industrial, and academic communities. (Note: dropped with the new curriculum for the Class of 2005)
LESSONS: 40 @ 55 min (1.000 Att/wk) LABS: 0 @ 0 min
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS:
A senior design project is required.
