Abstract :
In this paper, the student-centered pedagogical program used in the School of Electrical Engineering with a case study illustrating and describing the project-based curriculum in microelectronics is described. A case study project also described in the paper shows that the project-based learning method engages students in a deeper learning where not only emphasis is given to the final product, but also the process to get there.
