Abstract :
DSP deserves to be a major focus of professional engineering education, with ready access points provided at virtually all stages of undergraduate, postgraduate, and continuing professional development study. The authors describe one institution´s commitment to this concept, where entering undergraduates experience an electronic engineering curriculum designed around a 15% substrate of DSP, with an abundance of supporting project work available in two years of the program. A named DSP master´s course is an important bridge to industry and permits simultaneous access to short courses serving both full-time postgraduates and industry-based engineers. A satellite outreach linking a 15-site network of leading European DSP groups via live, interactive tele-seminars is also described.<>
