examples are clearly linked to real world situation. Additionally, it was been shown that female students excel in hands-on, collaborative educational settings [11][12]. Research further shows that minority students learn better when there is interaction between their experiences and their ideas [13]. More specifically, Hispanic students learn more effectively in collaborative environments that encourage team-based projects [14]. Thus, the experience-based model used in the program, with a lab-intensive curriculum that emphasizes real-world projects, we are serving minority students in engineering. III.

Education in Software Defined Radio Design Engineering Abstract— Software Defined Radio (SDR), an interdisciplinary emerging technology,presents new challenges for communications engineers and engineering educators. In SDR,signal modulation and information coding are defined in the system's software, nothardware. The authors have incorporated SDR design into their respective curricula bothto support the growing demand for SDR engineering and to teach widely applicablesystems engineering concepts. SDR-oriented curricular changes include new courses,laboratories, and software design tools. Software radio design is taught as aninterdisciplinary systems engineering undertaking, emphasizing the importance of
