Note: {SS} Preface indicates material from Signal and Systems Text
ASSESSMENT:
- Quizzes (20 points each)
Each quiz consists of a homework problem and a problem to be solved in-class.
- Midterm test (100 points)
- Comprehensive final exam (150 points)
- Labs Planning, Execution and Reports (20 points each lab)
Each student is expected to complete the weekly lab assignments during lab time. Even though some labs may be performed as a group, the report must be completed individually, and due on the following lab period.
Note: In order to be eligible to receive a passing grade for the course, all labs must be completed and turned in prior to final exam date.
- Service Learning Project (40 points)
Update project proposal, design project and implement the design. Access ECS club for more information.
