For example thedisplay below shows the number and then the value in 6 digits with 3 of those at the right thedecimal point.The above indicates W.h Consumption on Phase B is 28.053 W.h.

LaboratoryIntroductionTraditional undergraduate communications courses have focused on analog transmissionschemes such as amplitude (AM) and frequency modulation (FM). Given the comparativelysimple design of analog modulation circuitry, offering a laboratory component to the course isstraightforward. In a typical laboratory session, students could construct and investigate theperformance of AM or FM transmitters or receivers.With the emergence of technology such as digital cellular telephony and wireline and wirelessdata communications, the emphasis has shifted from analog to digital modulation. Because ofthis shift, digital communications has become an important component to all levels ofcommunications instruction. Due to the complexity of equipment that can emulate

For this path, the accreditation process provides validation of the baccalaureate component of the BOK. Validation of the “M/30” program will be provided by an approved outside entity, which might also be ABET. • B + MABET & E – This secondary path is currently being explored by ASCE for fulfilling the Civil Engineering Body of

These differences in pressure points canbe discussed and emphasized in ethical studies for entrepreneurs.One way to more specifically teach ethics with a view to entrepreneurs’ pressures and concernsis through the use of cases. In our case “WWP: Crossing the Line to Entrepreneurship” (SeeAttachment B), we portray an engineer entering the world of entrepreneurship. For the first time,he finds himself with no higher level management to consult on writing a proposal or even onhow he advertises his services. His major concerns revolve around financial matters.

suggest. The most significant results from this first stageare: a) Engineers spend much of their time coordinating the work of other people over whom they have little formal authority. This includes insiders – people in the same organization – and outsiders in client organizations, suppliers, contractors and community organizations. b) The significance of this coordination has much to do with the need to bring people together with the diverse range of technical knowledge and skills needed to complete engineering project successfully. Much of the working knowledge is unwritten. Written knowledge, where available, is often accessed verbally through individuals familiar with the specific details. c) Advocacy

, however as an electrical engineer, this was far from the case.”In addition, the participating students cited the following problems: 1. Lack of organization. At Kettering the students are required to organize and manage their own projects. The student’s inexperience often showed, and the learning experience was often painful. At Kettering this general problem is amplified by the two student bodies (A-section and B-section) that must work together to build the vehicle, even though they are not on campus at the same time. Said one alum, “Very poorly organized management and communication between sections made for lots of extra work.” 2. Lack of funding. Simply put there was never nearly enough money to build the vehicle
