Communications, Signal Processing, Networks and Systems
Communications, Signal Processing, Networks and Systems broadly encompasses the principles underlying the design and implementation of systems for information transmission. The field considers how information is represented, compressed, and transmitted on wired and wireless links and how communication networks can be, and are, designed and operated. A student who chooses this technical area should recognize that communications and networking is a broad application domain where many engineering tools come into play: from circuit design for wireless phones to embedded network processors to system and application software for networked systems.

Faculty Advisors for Basic and Conditional Major Sequence Students
The faculty advisors listed below can meet with Basic Sequence and Conditional Major Sequence students to discuss topics such as:
- Educational opportunities within ECE
- Course planning to meet a student's educational goals
- Short-term and long-term career planning
Students should either meet with the faculty member during their office hours or send them an e-mail to make an appointment. Students in Major Sequence should discuss Technical Area selections with their assigned faculty advisor.
