Consumer Electronics Design Education Project



Consumer Electronics Design is an educational effort of the Department of Electrical Engineering, developed by Prof. Blake Hannaford, Prof. Kelin Kuhn (now at Intel) and Prof. Denise Wilson.

Welcome to the

Consumer Electronics Education Project

A multi-disciplinary laboratory course introducing undergraduate engineers to product design, reverse engineering, product dissection, cost modeling and analysis, and mechatronics since 1994.

News:

The Consumer Electronics Design Course, EE498 will undergo a significant change during the 2000-2001 academic year. Starting this winter (W2001) the course will be linkend into a two-quarter design sequence offered every winter and spring quarter. The autumn offering is no longer available. For Winter 2001, register for EE400c which will be the first quarter of the sequence. The two courses will be team taught by Prof. Blake Hannaford and Prof. Denise Wilson. All students are required to take the following course EE498 (Sp2001) as well. No grades can be recieved for 400c without 498.

The purpose of this change is to allow more time to learn formal design techniques and the theory of robust design as well as more time to complete a more complete and professional design project. We are excited about this chance to make Consumer Electronics Design an even better learning experience.
