Thecourse is offered each semester in two sections of approximately 60 students per section, one inthe early morning and one in the late afternoon. The course was developed in the late 1990s asone of the few general engineering courses implementing Studio-Based pedagogy with benchtopinstrumentation. Benchtop instruments were replaced by the Rensselaer Mobile Studio boardseveral years later and then to flipped instruction in 2010, again using the Mobile Studio asstudent-owned personal instrumentation.

Particular focus is on the interplay of communication systems and networks; including network coding, user cooperation, spectrum sharing, opportunistic ac- cess, and scheduling with different delay constraints as well as millimeter wave communications. In neuro-engineering, his interests are on modeling neuronal circuits connectivity and the impact of learning on connectivity, on real-time closed-loop stabilization of neuronal systems to mitigate disorders such as epilepsy, Parkinson, depression, and obesity, on developing an understanding of
