Abstract :
A senior and graduate level curriculum in microwaves and computational electromagnetics is described. In a manner analogous to the rise of robotics for undergraduate course foci, a signal integrity focus is proposed, and course projects are tailored to that area. The advantage is a coherent and continuous understanding of the application of electromagnetic principles across topics, and sustained student interest, in different courses.
