In addition to several tracks, students havethe opportunity to independently research a field of interest. This is a great opportunity for teachersand students to pursue more in-depth analyses. This paper will describe one such experiment in thefield of metrology.Very often engineering laboratories at undergraduate schools are well equipped with power supplies,signal generators, oscilloscopes and general-purpose multimeters. This set allows teachers andstudents to set up test-beds for most of the basic electronics circuits studied in different engineeringtracks.

IntroductionThe availability of computer simulation tools such as MATLAB has created both opportunitiesand challenges in engineering education. These tools allow the students to simulate, analyze, anddesign engineering systems quickly and easily, but the underlying concepts can be obscured. Inthis paper, a series of design projects for a first course in linear control systems are presented. Inthese projects, MATLAB is used to reinforce the course material and introduce the studentsopen-ended design problems.The problem of designing an automated steering controller is investigated in three design
