ECE 359, Background Study

in Signals and Systems

Professor Dennis Sullivan

This is a background study class. Despite what you see in the lectures, you are not required to hand in the homework. The homework assignments and the solutions will be provided to you and you are encouraged to do them. Similarly, you are not required to take the mid-term exams, but you may take them on your own. Only the final exam is graded. A 70 % or better is required for a grade of “pass.”
