Abstract
In response to the high demand for specialists in the area of telecommunication and computer related fields in New England, the Department of Electronic Engineering at Johnson & Wales has gone through tremendous revisions in its program. Many courses were completely removed from the existing program and many new and more demanding courses were appended to replace the pervious courses. The new Electronic Engineering program is divided into two two-year curriculums. The second two-years is divided into three concentrations as follow: Digital System Engineering; Network Engineering; and System Engineering. The most difficult part of the conversion from the old to the new curriculum was the course developments, specifically those courses that are of great demand in today's high-tech industry. One of these courses is Digital Signal Transmission (DST). The development of such a course became even more difficult due to the almost nonexistence of a very similar course in the engineering programs around the nation whose courses we reviewed. Selecting a textbook for such a course was another problematic issue. A textbook that covered all the designated subject areas of our Digital Signal Transmission course proved to be difficult. This paper intends to show the process of our curriculum revision as well as the course development for Digital Signal Transmission.
