COURSE OBJECTIVES: The stated Program Objectives will be evidenced utilizing team oriented design,
analysis, construction, testing, documentation, and demonstration techniques. Being a capstone course,
Electronics Design and Analysis is intended to require extensive utilization of concepts introduced in previous
courses. Each student should show the following abilities.
- To research and understand operational electronic systems
- To design and predict electronic systems behavior
- To prototype and troubleshoot electronic systems
- To research component costs and availability
- To effectively document and communicate orally, in writing, by interview, and by presentation
TEXT: None. PowerPoint slides will be provided. Textbooks from previous courses will be used as references.

System Projects: Several electronic system projects will be performed during the semester. A preliminary
design review and a critical design review will be performed. An engineering notebook will be kept documenting
the design process. Projects will be taken from the design stage to the implementation stage.
Mock Interviews: Students will be required to do a mock interview during the Industrial Advisory Committee
meeting. Students will be required to prepare a resume documenting their current qualifications.
Industry Tour: Tours of different industry sites will be performed during the semester. Students will be
required to write a memo documenting their experience.
Certifications: Several certification labs will be performed during the semester. Students will be required to
perform certain experiments demonstrating their competency in different electronic areas.
