Peer Legacy for ECE311

All students who have previously taken ECE311 are welcome to use this page to leave comments/give advice to future students.

I never felt like I completely grasped the physics and "intuition" behind some of the fundamental concepts we learn about in ECE 311. However, the way the course was structured (at least when I took it), the exams did not emphasize whether you not you "understood the physics", but whether or not you could perform the math. So, for me, doing well in this course amounts to doing practice problems. If your lecturer doesn't do enough, I think the Sadiku textbook for the course is decent, but there are tons of additional materials out there. Check out MIT OpenCourseWare as well. To me, ECE 311 was just a glorified vector calculus class. --rscheidt
