requires simultaneous localization in both time andfrequency domains. The classical Fourier Transform (FT) analysis is able to achieve infinitefrequency resolution, but it does not provide temporal localization information. In case ofmultichannel EEGs, where the geometrical position of the electrodes reflect the spatialdimension, a space-time-frequency (STF) analysis through multiway processing methods hasalso become popular. The short-time Fourier transform (STFT) is defined as the discrete-timeFourier transform evaluated over a sliding window.The wavelet transform (WT) is another alternative for a time-frequency analysis. Unlike theshort-time Fourier transform, the time-frequency kernel for the wavelet transform based methodscan better localize

A proposed learning journey for professional engineering programConclusionsThis paper argues the case for the establishment of a global accord for the postgraduatelearning journey of engineers. The establishment of agreements covering educationalqualifications in engineering and competence standards for practicing engineers have resultedin increased engineering mobility and improved global standards. However, the papersuggests that the capability to perform provided by these competencies agreements do not Page 21.3.8ensure the professional development of engineers are complementary and adequate for them

leaders had been told that thecompetition was a “must win” project for their business, and the pressure that created appearedto inhibit them from reframing the problem when the design teams got into trouble. Instead, theyresponded to each successive difficulty by making the best of a bad situation. In the end, theleaders realized that they had missed numerous opportunities to press reset, redefine the problem,and move off in a new direction. We called this the “Leadership Box.” Page 21.9.6Finally, the Customer Simulation revealed the problem had one more dimension, one that wasidentified by the acquisition professionals themselves.

These general professional competences consist oftwo main groups:  Technical expertise  Specific engineering pedagogical competencies.Educational theory offers different lists of competences7. The IGIP concept of engineeringeducational competences is to be summarized as follows:  Pedagogical, psychological and ethical competences  Didactical skills and evaluative competences  Organisational (managerial) competencies  Oral and written communication skills and social competences  Reflective and developmental competencesOther categorizations might operate with the terms “technical expertise

In this paper a graphical technique is introduced that helpsstudents to predict the impact of Gain-Bandwidth Product limitation of a µA741op-amp.Recognizing that the real world op-amp itself can be modeled as a first order transfer function,this paper presents graphical techniques that can be used early in the design process to “pre-compensate” for gain-bandwidth product limitations. Using these techniques, students are thenable to meet specifications with their µA741 op-amps. Finally, using a more expensive (LM318)op-amp, with 15MHz gain-bandwidth product illustrate that minimal

Our reflections on this work and future research are indicatedin section 5.3 Literature Search, Review, and AssessmentWhen students embark on research, often they have no clear cut ideas about which area or topicsthey want to investigate. At best they will have one or two key phrases (e.g., comparative genomicanalyses) to begin their exploration.
