Pre-requisites Grade C or better in ECE 225. Please talk with me if you do not meet the pre-requisite.

Homework Homework will be assigned, but not collected for a grade. Quizzes In-class quizzes will be administered throughout the semester. Quizzes will be based on homework. The lowest quiz grade will be dropped. Projects More information on projects will be provided after week 6 of the semester. Students are expected to present on their projects in the last three weeks of classes during class. Lab Lab will begin the third week of classes. Please see the tentative lab schedule at the end of this document for more details. Midterm The midterm is scheduled for Monday, October 22nd during class. Please arrive at least five minutes early to get settled. The midterm will start promptly at 6:00pm. You will have the duration of the class to work on the exam. You will be allowed to bring in one 8.5in by 11in sheet of equations; you may use both sides of the sheet. You may also use a scientific calculator (ie., not a graphing calculator). Attendance Policy I expect that you will attend all lectures and labs. However, I understand situations can arise that may prohibit you from doing so. If you miss a lab or an exam you will not get any points for that lab or exam. No make-up exams or alternate arrangements will be allowed unless you miss an exam for reasons beyond your control (supporting documents required). Please check Blackboard regularly for announcements, assignments, etc. Academic Integrity Policy Dishonest actions by students including plagiarism will result in appropriate disciplinary action. Intentional use or attempt to use unauthorized assistance, materials, information, or people in any examination, quiz, or assignment may lead to penalties such as a failing grade. College of Engineering and University guidelines will be followed. Accommodations The University of Illinois at Chicago is committed to maintaining a barrier-free environment so that students with disabilities can fully access programs, courses, services, and activities at UIC. Students with disabilities who require accommodations for access to and/or participation in this course must be registered with the Disability Resource Center (DRC). Religious Holidays

Students who wish to observe their religious holidays should notify instructor by the tenth day of the semester of the date when they will be absent unless the religious holiday is observed on or before the tenth day of the semester. In such cases, the students should notify the instructor at least five days in advance of the date when he/she will be absent. Every reasonable effort will be made to honor the request. Note about syllabus This syllabus is subject to change. Changes will be announced in class and on Blackboard. Please check Blackboard regularly. Tentative Lab Schedule Week
