-
1.00 Credits
This course covers special topics in individual areas of Electrical and Computer Engineering. Specific prerequisites are determined by the nature of the course when it is announced.
-
3.00 Credits
This is a senior level undergraduate elective course that covers the fundamentals of sustainable design in engineering with an emphasis on electricity and energy. Topics include energy fundamentals (forms, fuels, conversion technologies), energy use and its impacts on a globalizing economy, life cycle assessment tools and environmental management techniques, ISO14001 implementation in industry (US vs. European experience), application of sustainable engineering practice via an eco-design software tool. The student is exposed to sustainable designs in product manufacturing and energy/electricity production.

3.00 Credits
As a survey of biomedical engineering, this class will introduce various systems of the human physiology from an engineering perspective. In particular, students will be introduced to signals of biological origin obtained from these systems; biosensors, transducers and bioelectrodes used to acquire such signals, along with medical quality amplifiers for measuring biopotentials. Electrical safety of medical devices; measurements of the blood pressure, blood flow, and respiratory system will also be discussed. Along with a carefully designed set of experiments, this course will provide the fundamental principles of biomedical engineering from an electrical and mechanical engineering perspective.
-
3.00 Credits
This course treats product engineering from a variety of perspectives including engineering and non-engineering viewpoints to explore important elements for modern design. Techniques and tools of rapid prototyping, including virtual reality, are treated. Important course concepts are reinforced through product design experiences.
-
3.00 Credits
This course examines engineering failure from both the forensics and liability perspectives. Forensic engineering seeks to discover the reason for product or system failure. Product liability seeks to assign and quantify blame for that failure. Methods of forensic engineering are presented. The implications of product liability on the design process are considered from several perspectives. The course is complemented with practical applications.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisites: ENGR 01302 This course examines interaction design from several perspectives. The role of ergonomics is treated along with techniques of input and output interfacing. Methods and tools for virtual implementation are presented. The course is complemented with practical applications.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisites: ECE 09202 and ECE 09302 This is an upper level elective course that covers the fundamentals of power system engineering with an emphasis on the modern electricity grid and new energy technologies. Topics include: History and Key inventions in the development of the electric power industry, mechanical and electromagnetic fundamentals, three-phase circuits and transformers, AC machinery, synchronous machines and induction motors, DC machines, transmission lines, power flow, system reliability, advanced generation technologies, utility industry deregulation, and options for a sustainable electric power system in the future.
-
3.00 Credits
This is an introductory course in the fundamentals of solid state electronic devices. The course will cover the physical structure of silicon and compound semiconductor materials and the conduction processes in these materials. The p-n junction and its applications will be studied along with the principles of transistor devices. The course will address analog and switching applications and introduce basic laser operations.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisites: ECE 09201 and ECE 09311 and PHYS 02200 This is an introductory course in the fundamentals of electronic packaging. It focuses on the complex interaction of materials science, mechanics of materials, and electrical signal processing. The course will progress from the basic materials used in chip packaging and board construction, through mechanical design and testing, to the electrical modeling of the interconnect structure, and finally to reliability assessment. The laboratory exercises will mirror this four-part organization by providing opportunities for laboratory experience in each of the four areas.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisites: ENGR 01401 or ENGR 01402 Principles of nondestructive evaluation provides an introduction to contemporary and emergent methods for the non-invasive inspection of infrastructure composed of modern engineering materials. The course covers system design and the processing and analysis of nondestructive evaluation signals. Case studies on engineering design for testing are provided.
