Look up your final exam schedule now to determine conflicts.

Please note that the exam is listed here as if in person however due to remote nature of the class it is highly likely the exam will have some flexibility on the time you take it. However, you should block of this time in your calendar now.

Announcements

DateNote
08/19/21 Welcome to Fall 2021. Seems this will look a lot like one year ago. EE361 will be a fully remote course. It will be run synchronously, so be sure to block off the originally scheduled "lecture" time on Tuesdays and Thursdays between 2:30-3:45 for interactive discussion/office hours. We will try our best to be flexible and understanding as things will certainly evolve over the semester.

Note on book abbreviations: OW = Oppenheim and Wilsky; SSS = Schaum's Signals and Systems; SPR = Schaum's Probability, Random Variables, and Random Processes.

Be sure to brush up on your Laplace Transform (OW Ch 9) and Z-Transform (OW Ch 10).

Schedule (Tentative)

Course content will be posted in the Schedule below. Lecture (Panopto) and Discussion (Webex) can be found on Webcampus.
