TITLE: Low-Cost Portable Instrumentation System for Engaging Students through Hands-on Learning

DATE OF SEMINAR: March 12 (Thursday), 2015

 

LOCATION: 3rd floor conference room in the Electrical Engineering Building

TIME:            1:00PM – 2:00PM

ABSTRACT:

Due to advancement in technology made possible through increasing miniaturization of integrated circuits, several portable instrumentation systems are now available.  Low-cost portable electronic instrumentation systems, which allow students to test their ideas anywhere and anytime, will have significant influence on engineering education by inspiring students to be creative and become highly engaged in their learning.

 

One of the low-cost electronic instrumentation systems is the Analog Discovery Platform. This talk will introduce the attendees to the Analog Discovery Module, Waveforms, and Electronic Parts Kits. In addition, attendees will become knowledgeable about how hands-on experiential learning is being introduced into the electrical and computer engineering curriculum at PVAMU.  Furthermore, the attendees will see examples of hands-on experiments that have been performed by electrical and computer engineering students.

Dr. Qian awarded $5M to develop  the    “Center of Excellence in Research and Education for Big Military Data Intelligence (CREDIT)”

Today’s military analysts are faced with the monumental and escalating task of handling massive volumes of complex data from multiple sources. To enhance their ability to more effectively and efficiently process data, a multidisciplinary team of researchers from Prairie View A&M University plan to establish Center of excellence in Research and Education for big military Data InTelligence (CREDIT). The center’s mission is to accelerate research and education in predictive analytics for science and engineering to transform our ability to effectively address and solve many complex problems posed by big data. The center will bring together sensing, perception, and decision support for mission-critical applications of DoD. The proposed center will build partnerships with DoD labs, government agencies and business to focus on research data analysis and educating and training students to become data scientists and engineers in the future data-centric economy and contribute to DoD missions.
