Abstract

A new undergraduate curriculum in electrical engineering has been adopted by the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Illinois. Major changes have been incorporated, including a redistribution of the circuits and signal processing topics within the curriculum. After giving an overview of the new curriculum, this paper focuses on a new, required sophomore-level course on analog signal processing. This course combines material from the traditional course on circuit analysis with material on continuous-time signals and systems. Students completing this course can study digital signal processing as first-semester juniors, which leaves ample time for more advanced signal and image processing courses in future semesters
