Topic:


Overview of Modern Airborne RADAR Systems

Speaker:

William Dykeman, Test Engineering Manager
Raytheon, Forest, MS

 

Most of the IEEE members have fond memories of their time in college and the time and dedication associated with their own senior design projects. Years past have brought the IEEE student branches to Jackson in April to demonstrate the student competition entries for IEEE SouthEastCon. This year’s meeting will be held in Starkville, with students giving their senior presentations which include the technical aspects of the designs, the business plan, and costs associated with the robot. This year’s presentation will also include a second team - the quadrotor aerial vehicle senior design presentation. By attending the presentations, IEEE members will get a vision of the present state of engineering education methodology, and the importance of life-long learning, as well as see great demonstrations of two impressive senior design projects.
