A Jitter Education: Finding a Place for Jitter Analysis in the EET Curriculum Gene L. Harding Purdue UniversityAbstractTiming jitter has become a major issue in the high-speed electronics industry during the pastseveral years. It is the phenomenon seen when the rising or falling edge of a digital waveformappears before or after the expected time. This paper describes the basics of timing jitter, how tomeasure and display it, and proposes where and how to incorporate various jitter topics into afour-year electrical engineering technology (EET) curriculum.IntroductionTiming jitter is the phenomenon seen when a

PIV setups can be used to determine the entire flow field in a region ofinterest. These devices are quickly reshaping the field; however, extreme barriers to entry impedesmaller institutions from acquiring such systems. The cost of PIV systems often

industry [6]. Students and industry professionals see internships as a very effective learning method for acquiring and transferring information across the academic and corporate sectors. From an academic perspective, the criticism is that university education primarily focuses on acquiring theoretical knowledge rather than practical skills[11][12].3. Practical Projects: a. Assign projects that require students to apply AI techniques to solve real construction management problems. For example, students could develop AI models for project cost estimation, scheduling, or safety prediction[13].4. Access to AI Tools and Software: a. Ensure that students can access AI software and tools
