During the course, his students explored severalgenerally-applicable topics, including various types of radio frequency (RF) propagation, high-frequency printed circuit board (PCB) layout, and antenna analysis and design. They alsostudied several more militarily-focused topics, including

The Excel spreadsheet is aprime example of how engineers embraced technology for those reasons. Excel has been a staple inproducing an immeasurable number of engineering calculations. However, humans have alwaysbeen responsible for spreadsheet development and, unfortunately, humans will inherently produceerrors within spreadsheets. But what if an engineer can reduce the number of errors and produce

They also investigate the role of government actions and interventions during the recent crisis and comparethis recent economic recession to previous recessions. Finally, recommendations are presented for avoiding similarcrises in the future such as lowering corporate tax rates, offering a payroll tax holiday to U.S. workers, protectinghome mortgages, offering states a $500 per capita federal distribution, reducing crippling regulations for business,making the U.S. educational system more

paradigm proposed here combines the advantages of laboratory teaching (e.g., hands-on experience) with an effective teaching of scientific methods and problem solving [1]. Ofcourse, a primary benefit of this method is that students play an active role in tackling ab-stract concepts, which have not been traditionally conducive to such participation. Further-more, these exercises result in an improved competency of the students in using spreadsheetsfor engineering purposes, thus preparing them better for their future professional endeav-ors. [1] The novelty of the proposed technique resides in its objective to illustrate abstractconcepts. This is a departure from prior efforts to use spreadsheets, CFD, or software toolssuch as Mathcad in the engineering
