Final Project Submissions for ESE111, Atoms, Bits, Circuits and Systems.

About ESE111 : ESE 111 at University of Pennsylvania (only offered in Fall) is an introduction to the principles underlying electrical and systems engineering.  Concepts used in designing circuits, processing signals, analyzing networks, and understanding complex systems will be discussed in lectures and illustrated in the laboratory.  This course provides some of the necessary foundations for students interested in more advanced courses in Electrical and Systems Engineering department.

Important Dates

You will need to turn in the following items, which will be used to determine
