    An independent research experience for undergraduate students enrolled in the Engineering Honors Program. Before registering for this class, student s are responsible for discussing their interests with faculty, identifying a willing faculty research mentor.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Emphasizes a systems approach to real time embedded systems. Students will be expected to apply methodical system design practices to designing and implementing a microprocessor-based real time embedded system. Students will employ a robot-based educational platform to learn the intricacies of real time embedded systems, distributed processing, and fuzzy logic. Students will also learn processor input/output interfacing techniques. Students will use state-of-the-art design and troubleshooting tools. Dual listed with EE 5590. Prerequisite: EE 4390.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Feedback control systems analysis and design using frequency domain, time response and state-space methods. Routh's criteria, Nyquist criteria and root locus. Dominant pole controller design. Prerequisite: EE 2220.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Control theory and design methods focused on application. Feedback. Performance limits. Routh-Hurwitz, root locus, Nyquist. Nonminimum-phase systems. State feedback. Proportional-Integral-Derivative control. Lead/lag. High-order compensation. Discrete controllers. Honors students will at the end of the semester design a high-performance control system for a sophisticated plant with realistic feedback limitations.
