General Course Overview
This is a seminar course. It has two purposes. First, this course will serve as a mechanism for sharing knowledge about work being done in the area of Electromagnetic Compatibility at Missouri S&T. Results or ideas generated from one project can often contribute substantially to another project. Both the presenter and the audience can benefit significantly from the exchange of ideas that occurs during a well-planned seminar with good audience participation. Students who successfully complete this course will be well versed in fundamental EMC concepts and familiar with significant ongoing research projects at Missouri S&T.
The second purpose of this course is to give students an opportunity to improve their technical communication skills. Each student will lead two seminar classes. The format of the presentations is flexible. Generally the student will be expected to prepare a 20-30 minute presentation followed by 15-20 minutes of discussion. However, novel forms of presentation are encouraged.
