The benefitswould be not only that the students would gain valuable research experiences, but also that thestudents’ appreciation for the communication would deepen, because the students would be morelikely to attain deeper understanding and to assume more ownership of the content. One strategy for this research option would be as a frame for a summer researchexperience, such as a Research Experience for Undergraduate (REU) sponsored by the NationalScience Foundation.11 This framing would entail preparing the students during the spring for thesummer research experiences and then allowing students enough time to document theexperiences in the fall.

For many newfaculty, there is no existing research group to join, so the faculty member starts from scratch. Inaddition to these external challenges, often the PUI is not set up to support the faculty inobtaining external research funds, as this may be a relatively new activity there.Locating facilities for research is difficult at a PUI. Faculty must find a way to useundergraduate teaching laboratories for their research, or need to locate funds to outfit a new lab. Page

Through early exposure to a broad set of knowledge and simulation/laboratory techniques, students can begin to develop intellectual curiosity and intuition about how electrical and computer systems work and, in the process, see the fun and excitement in electrical and computer engineering. This paper delves into the development of the course, from the determination of the goals through the implementation of the course structure and teaching philosophy.
