-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
A one semester study of an important problem or topic in chemical and biological engineering. Projects may be experimental, computational, or theoretical. Topics selected by the students from suggestions by the faculty. Written report required.
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
One-term full time research internship at a host institution to perform scholarly research directly relevant to a student's dissertation work. Research objectives will be determined by the student's advisor in consultation with the outside host. Monthly progress reports and a final paper are required. Enrollment limited to post-generals students. Students will be permitted to enroll in this one-semester course at most twice. Participation will be considered exceptional.
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
A forum of graduate students, staff and distinguished outside speakers presenting their recent research in signal processing, communication and information theory, decision and control, and systems theory. Attendance by ISS students required.
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
Course covers the fundamentals of linear signal processing and systems analysis. Various topics important for further study in control, communication and signal processing are presented.
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
Course presents the fundamentals of applied random processes needed by students in communications, computer engineering, systems, and signal processing. Probability, random variables (discrete and continuous), convergence and laws of large numbers, stationarity and ergodicity. Markov chains, Gaussian, Poison, and related processes. Mean-square error prediction, spectral analysis, and other topics as time permits.
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
