Short course description

This sophomore-targeted class presents motivated students with an early, scaffolded introduction to the nature and process of Electrical and Systems Engineering research as represented by ongoing faculty (and collaborating colleagues’ and industrial partners’) projects. ESE 290 offers a 0.5 CU structured classroom experience featuring lectures and joint exercises on how to pursue effective background technical reading, pitch a proposal, and aim for the discovery of new human knowledge to complement the individually mentored topic-specific project work to be pursue in the 1.0 CU co-requisite, ESE 291. Students gain admission to ESE 290 by applying to a specific project posted on the class repository and winning the sponsor’s agreement to have the mentor accept them as their ESE 291 participant.
