Course Information
Signal Processing Series
Signal Processing deals with the operation of extracting, enhancing, storing, and transmitting useful information. This is probably second only to mathematics in terms of the number of areas it has been applied to from acoustics, audio, biomedical, communication, geophysics, image, sonar, speech, radar, terrestrial, to any other data including mechanical vibrations, transportation, and financial data analysis.
The following courses are offered. Click on the course title to find out more about the course.

Communications and Networking Series
Communications
Systems deals with all aspects of information
transmission over wired (telephone/cable/optical-fiber) and
wireless (satellite/digital radio/cellular) channels.
Communication plays such a big role in everyday life, one
can fully realize the impact of this technology on society
if only you can think of living a day without your
telephone/cellphone, television, tablets and other mobile
devices such as pagers.
Communication Networks (Wired/Wireless) focus
on transportation of multimedia between interconnected
groups of hosts/computers, switches, routers, and a host of
other input/output devices . The explosive growth of the
internet explains the reason why email addresses have
replaced telephone numbers. Truly the next century will be
the age of the information revolution.
