*I took ECE302 last semester. I think it is easier than 301, 311 and others. I did not spend a lot of time after class. The only thing I did was to do my homework and understand them. I went to professor’s office hour and TA’s office hour for additional help. I did not read any extra materials other than the book. But I did not spend a lot of time reading the book. Compared to 301 and 311, I did not use a lot of calculus. Most of the time, I only need some high school calculations. The class starts from one dimension to two dimensions to multiply dimensions. As long as a student understands the one dimension problems, everything else is just repetitions. Since a lot of things are very similar in this class, I felt I learnt the same thing three times. That is really a good part of this course. If you did not understand some of the material the first time, you still get the chance to understand them later. I spent a lot of time on this course at the beginning of that semester. But I spend less and less time after that. Chih-Chun Wang is a good professor on teaching. I recommend students taking his class.--[[User:pan11|pan11]] | *I took ECE302 last semester. I think it is easier than 301, 311 and others. I did not spend a lot of time after class.

| − | ECE302 is a jump from 301. Most of the concepts in 302 are new. I recommend Professor Chih-Chun Wang as he does an excellent job teaching the subject and keeping interest. This course is one that is very applicable to future jobs and attending lecture and taking notes is very important. Studying and understanding the notes and homeworks will help you to grasp this topic and will help you do well on the exams. --[[User:kheldman|kheldman]] | + | *ECE302 is a jump from 301.

| − | ECE 302 is in my opinion the hardest class in EE. It is also very different from other classes in EE. Understanding the formulas is very important because you need to know how to manipulate formulas and use them depending on the situation. This is very hard because the concepts are very abstract. I recommend asking your TA or your professor any doubts you have. Getting to understand the content at the beggining is crucial as the class gets exponentially harder. --[[User:cdleon|Carlos Leon]] | + | *ECE 302 is in my opinion the hardest class in EE.

Peer Legacy for ECE302
All students who have previously taken ECE302 are welcome to use this page to leave comments/give advice to future students.
- I found ECE302 to be one of the hardest (if not the hardest) ECE classes I've taken. It's not impossible to get an A, but it takes a lot of work. This is one class where I think conceptual understanding is really critical to doing well on the exams, because you really need to understand when to use one equation and when to use another equation and how different probabilistic situations differ, etc. I found lecture to be very minimalist (at least as far as going through practice problems), so I utilized my T.A. very heavily (just about every week). Be sure to get a fairly solid grasp on "1D signals/systems" before you start dealing with "2D signals/systems". Otherwise, the material will likely be very confusing.--rscheidt
- Chih-Chun Wang teaches this course very well. If he's teaching it, be sure to take it if you haven't :) As always, step away from the math and ask yourself, "What am I really doing?" In a course like 302, many students come in with some understanding of what probability is. Make sure the math matches your expectations. --weim
