Laboratory Assignments


ECE 147B Homepage Homework Lecture Materials Laboratories


Each student is assigned to one of two lab groups, each of which will meet weekly.

When there is a pre-lab assigned, it must be submitted with sufficient time to be graded and returned to you in time for your lab session. To avoid penalizing those in the earlier lab group, all pre-lab assignments will be due at the same time. Pre-labs are due at noon on Monday (even if Monday is a school holiday) of the week of lab, in the drop box outside HFH 3120. Post-lab write-ups are due at the start of your next lab session.
