At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic and in response to California’s social distancing guidelines, the UC Davis Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) had less than two weeks to make an abrupt transition from in-person instruction to remote instruction. This shift to virtual instruction came with numerous challenges, especially in laboratory-based courses.
Texas Instruments (TI) has continued to provide generous support of the Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) Department’s undergraduate teaching labs during the pandemic. This has been especially helpful during the ramp-up of high-quality, hands-on, remote lab instruction. “Texas Instruments supports the engaging learning experience created at UC Davis, especially in this time where remote learning is so critical,” said ChengNing Wang, director of university marketing at Texas Instruments.
Professor Hooman Rashtian will present a live webinar hosted by Texas Instruments on August 12th in which he will highlight some of the ECE department’s recent activities in promoting hands-on learning in its undergraduate curriculum. In particular, he will overview the updated curriculum of “EEC10: Introduction to Analog and Digital Systems” for instructors and students outside UC Davis.
A team of students in the Radulaski Lab: Victoria Norman, Sridhar Majety, Jesse Patton and Liang Li, won the California division of the Qiskit Summer Jam Hackathon, sponsored by IBM.
Hurlston received his undergraduate and graduate degrees in electrical engineering, in addition to an M.B.A. from the UC Davis Graduate School of Management (GSM).
Hope Bovenzi, B.S., electrical engineering, ’12, is one of eight UC Davis alumni to receive a 2020 UC Davis Alumni Award for her accomplishments thus far.
The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering would like to congratulate its awardees on their having been recognized in the recent 2019 Award Ceremony.
