EE Systems Design I

Prof. Revzen was one of the initial creators and developers of the “Electrical Engineering Systems Design I” class EECS200, the first in several new classes that add hands on experience, design, and project management to the ECE curriculum.

EECS200 is an introduction to electrical engineering is centered around a societally-relevant design challenge for a 2-wheeled robot platform. Apply electrical engineering concepts in circuits, computing, control, sensors, optics, power, signal processing, and wireless communications to a system such as a robot, and adapt the system to achieve competition objectives within defined engineering constraints. The first eight weeks of the course will explore subsystems that allow the robot to sense, think, and act, and the second eight weeks will require student teams to revise and adapt a robot to achieve objectives set forth by the competition, while operating within specified constraints.
