• I took ECE 495 as a VIP research project, and it was an extremely rewarding experience. If you are interested in research, then this is definitely a good way to go for senior year. The projects are pretty much geared to solving open-ended problems which is different from other courses, where you already kinda know how to approach the solution before you begin solving the problem, and so I found it much more akin to real research. Be warned though; if you are taking this class to get an easy A and intend to slack off

a)you are wasting valuable research time

b)they will know at the end that you slacked off because there is a final presentation very similar to a grad prelim:)Dlamba 14:38, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

• • Dhruv, is there more than one ECE495 course? Hersh just created a course wiki for ECE495:Fundamentals of Nanoelectronics taught by Prof. Datta. THat sounds like a different course than what you took. --Mboutin 17:55, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
