Integrating Matlab into Graduate Courses in Digital Signal Processing Yanwu DingAbstractDigital signal processing has been widely used in various disciplines of engineering. Students areexpected to be competent, not only in fundamental digital signal processing concepts andtheories but also in practical signal processing techniques for achieving broader applications.

This course focuses on fundamental concepts and techniques of digitalsignal processing in

The Case for Sharing WisdomOverall, the number of graduate and doctorate degrees awarded in the US has grown over the course ofthe early 21st century [1]. Fields like engineering and education have been producing PhDs for severaldecades, however recent shifts technology have changed the process of a PhD drastically [2]. The specificnew field of a PhD in engineering education came formally into existence in 2004 with the creation ofPurdue’s School of Engineering Education [3], with programs at

Education, 2018 Integrated Learning In Context for Heat Exchanger AnalysisAbstractAn Engineering Technology program is developing a new vertically integrated undergraduateenergy systems curriculum that crosses traditional course boundaries. The goal is for students torecognize and understand energy conversion in a more comprehensive way by showing howsimilar processes occur in different disciplines. Courses in thermodynamics, electrical powergeneration, fluid power, manufacturing processes, and internal combustion engines are all beingmodified to include modules on energy conversion as a unifying and integrating theme. Thispaper targets one module of this comprehensive multi-course re-design, where a two-weeksegment of an introductory

A final factor may be the applicant’s demonstrated enthusiasm for theschool.However, holistic review is expensive. Instead of comparisons that can be performed by acomputer, it requires considerable staff time to collect and assess all the elements. It may not beaffordable for programs in high demand; Harvard, for example, received nearly 6,000applications for graduate engineering graduate programs last year [43] and the University ofMichigan reported over 13,000 [44].Bastedo et al.
