| 3 hours Topic: Global Positioning Systems. Prerequisites: ECE 329. An introduction to global navigation satellite systems, with a focus on the global positioning system (GPS). The European Galileo system and the Russian GLONASS system will also be discussed, as will the modernization of the current U.S. GPS. Topics to be covered in lectures and laboratories include basics of navigation, mathematics of obtaining a navigation solution, receiver design and analysis, error analysis and error mitigation. |

| 1 hours Topic: Advanced Lectures in Engineering Entrepreneurship. Prerequisite: Junior, Senior or Graduate student. Analysis of concepts of entrepreneurship and commercialization of new technology in new and existing businesses. Guest speaker topics vary, but typically include: idea validation and opportunity assessment; commercializing new technologies; venture funding; legal issues; product development; marketing; international business issues. Critical analysis of case studies in high-technology ventures with specific emphasis on ventures based on technologies in electrical and computer engineering. |

| 3 hours Topic: Princip of Experimental Research. Prerequisites: ECE 313 and Senior or Graduate standing in an engineering or science curriculum, or by permission of the instructor. This is an interdisciplinary course designed for first year graduate students and advanced undergraduates. The course focuses on: (1) design of experiments, (2) prevalent experimental techniques, (3) data organization, analysis, and presentation techniques, and (4) scientific computing languages and software. Students will carry out two experiments of their own design demonstrating automated data collection and screening of variables. They will also present scientific material in three common formats: at a poster session, at a conference talk, and in a journal paper. The main course objective is for students to develop the basic skills needed for pursuing a career or an advanced degree involving experimental research. |

| 3 hours Topic: System-on-ashcip (DOC) Desgin Laboratory. Prerequisites: Concurrent registration in 482/483/425. The proposed course will introduce our students to the practical issues in the design of complex systems-on-a-chip (SOC) through a hands-on design of an SOC. One of the instructors (Jonathan Ashbrook) is from industry (Finisar Corporation, Champaign) and has extensive experience with methodology and industry quality IC design. Jonathan will set-up the tool-flow necessary for executing the course projects. This is a project-oriented course to complement our existing circuit design courses (482, 483 and 435) and include all the design (system, architectures, logic, circuit, layout, verification, tape-out procedures), project management (specifications, design documentation, design reviews) steps, and require students to work together in groups of 4-5 each. A modern SOC will be designed starting from system specifications all the way down to a tape-out ready IC database. The course will benefit our undergraduates by preparing them to participate in IC design projects in industry or in graduate school and our graduate students by providing them with skills necessary to design ICs as part of their graduate research program. |
