Experiential Learning in Engineering Education: “A Golden Age for
Makers”
\n
In society\, the growing demands placed on individuals a
re becoming increasingly more complex and challenging to handle. However\,
hands-on learning opportunities can help prepare students with the compet
encies required to devise effective solutions to real-world problems.
In January 2022\, the Edward
S. Rogers Sr. Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the Uni
versity of Toronto\, in collaboration with Professor Sean Hum\, launched a
n exciting new second-year course\, ECE295 – Hardware Design and C
ommunication\, which has students working in teams to design\, bu
ild and test a complete electronic system from scratch.
“Students are involved from the conceptual
and computer-aided design right down to the mounting of components on the
circuit boards\, as well as using a variety of modern test and measurement
equipment and debugging their designs\,” Professor Sean Hum says. “That e
nd-to-end experience isn’t available at other universities — not at the se
cond-year level.”
Join us
on April 5 at the Faculty Club to hear Professor Sean Hum share his ratio
nale for implementing this innovative new course in our curriculum and how
it advances student success.
Guests will have an opportunity to network with some of the talented
students from ECE295 and to to view some of the final hardware design prod
ucts created by the students themselves!
