In teaching software-defined radio, it would be interesting to test receivers with realRF signals instead of simulated ones.There are advantages in having the students work with real signals in laboratory courses[1,2,3].But for those students without access to the expensive test equipment or the time to set up theexperiments, a database may be the only way to get access to a wide

why IABs came into existence.Engineering Schools have had IABs for many years but the purpose of these has not alwaysshared common goals. In some instances the primary purpose of an advisory board may befund raising, gaining political influence, developing a student internship program, ordeveloping industrial placements for graduates of the program [2]. Although these may beworthy causes, they are not the primary role of an IAB; an IAB should be advising on coursecontent and teaching methods. In 1994, this mismatch between IAB activities caused theABET commission to place the existing accreditation methodology under scrutiny and movedthe focus from what was being taught towards a more strategic role focused on outcomes andobjectives.

Based upon departmental needs analyses and published research onpossible ‘fits’ from successful STEM initiatives at other institutions, we designed PRIMES toblend two general strands that would support these anticipated outcomes: 1. Transform Teaching and Learning: Improved retention as a result of expanding our undergraduate teaching assistance (UTA) programs and institutionalizing a formal UTA training pedagogy.
