A FOUR-YEAR VERTICALLY INTEGRATED DESIGN SEQUENCE IN ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

摘要

This paper describes the creation of a four-year vertically integrated design sequence in the Department of Electrical Engineering at the University Park campus of The Pennsylvania State University. We describe the motivation behind the curriculum revisions, the integration of material among the four design courses, and the strategy for obtaining the approval and support of the Electrical Engineering faculty for implementing the new design sequence.
