classroom and as homework, that use of the approach be integrated in both classand lab settings, and that use be expanded to course pre-requisites as well as follow up/advancedcourses. Overall, the use of experimental centric approaches to learning and teaching appears tooffer a promising method of increasing and enhancing circuits based classes so that futureengineers will be better able to meet the needs of a rapidly changing world. Further research isneeded on the role of faculty teaching style, specific course content, and long-term achievementoutcomes.References: 1. Suitts, S.

the structure and guidance they need to acquirethese fundamentals, and then allow them the freedom to make informed curricular choices laterin their academic program.Complete and seamless integration of EE and CE, as proposed in this paper, not only benefits thestudents in providing them the knowledge with both sufficient breadth and depth for them toprosper in the real world after graduation, it also provides flexibility in designing core andadvanced ECE courses to adapt to the rapidly changing technology world. As technologiescontinue to advance, the content of each course is bound to change, but the discipline of ECE,without the boundary between EE and CE, will last and stand the test of time.Bibliography1. http://www.abet.org/2.
