Register by 22 Dec 2006 via email to bgramat-at-jhmi.edu

Description: The course surveys many different concerns that an engineer or designer needs to consider when developing a new product - hardware circuits, software processes, power, cooling, human interfaces, testing, integration, delivery, and support after product launch. It presents many different tradeoffs, such as buy versus build, architectures that suit specific applications, and types of markets.

Instructor: Kim Fowler has spent 25 years in designing and developing medical, military, and satellite equipment. He authored, Electronic Instrument Design: Architecting for the Life Cycle, published by Oxford University Press and is currently working on three other books. He is Editor-In-Chief of the IEEE Instrumentation & Measurement magazine, writes the Tried and True column, and is an IEEE Distinguished Lecturer. He co-founded Stimsoft, a medical products company, which he sold in 2003 and now consults in product development. He has published widely in engineering journals and has several patents.

 

Each hour counts as 0.1 CEU (CEU = Continuing Education Units). Also, 0.1 CEU = 1 PDH (Professional Development Hour). The CEU is a currency that measures a person's participation in a formal, non-credit continuing education program, such as a workshop, seminar, tutorial, or self-study course. IEEE is an Authorized CEU Provider through the International Association for Continuing Education and Training (IACET). As defined by IACET, one CEU is equal to ten contact hours of instruction in a continuing education activity. Any activity less than one hour in duration is not eligible for CEUs. Currently, thirty states require Professional Development Hours to maintain P.E. licensure, encouraging engineers to seek CEUs for their participation in Continuing Education programs. Evidence of participation in these courses also helps engineers meet company training requirements.

Potential applicants to the course and CEUs need to register before Dec 22, 2007 by sending an email to me: bgramat-at-jhmi.edu

Thanks,

Boris Boris Gramatikov,

Chair 2006, Baltimore Section, IEEE
