| Abstract: | Driven by $32 billion in semiconductor 2003 sales alone, the DSP industry continues to be in need of trained entry-level engineers. Preparing neophytes for DSP careers has historically been the role of higher education. Typically, undergraduate DSP studies have evolved from research-centric graduate programs and are delivered in a conventional lecture format. Unfortunately, this approach to often emphasizes theory and analysis to the exclusion of technology and design. The University of Florida (UF), with the support of the National Science Foundation (NSF), Texas Instruments (TI), and Mathworks, are developing the InvestiGATOR, an inquiry-based learning paradigm that provides undergraduates with an understanding of core DSP-concepts using authentic hands-on technology-centric studies delivered in a studio-based format. | ||
