ECE 313

PROBABILITY WITH ENGINEERING APPLICATIONS


Credit : 3 hours or 3/4 unit.
Graduate students in the ECE Department cannot receive unit credit for ECE 313.

Prerequisites : ECE 210

ECE 313 is an undergraduate course on probability theory and statistics with applications to engineering problems primarily chosen from the areas of communications, control, signal processing, and computer engineering.

ECE 313 is semi-required in the new BSEE and BSCompE curricula --- all students must complete one of the three courses ECE 313 (3 hours), IE 230 (3 hours), and Stat 310 (4 hours).

ECE 313 Sections B and D will cover the same material in the same order at the same pace, and will have common homework and common (evening) exams. Both instructors welcome students from the other section to sit in on their lectures and to consult with them during their office hours or at other times.

Section E, which is especially recommended for Computer Engineering majors, will cover the material in different order and will have separate homework and exams.
