Objectives

We propose a seminar course of graduate student presentations on advanced topics in communications. The style of the class is proposed to be informal and discussion-based, centered around student-delivered tutorials rather than professor-prepared lectures. Our primary objectives for such a course are to:

• Establish a seminar course based upon graduate-student-led discussions,
• Cover current and advanced topics,
• Create a forum for cross-fertilization of ideas and perspectives,
• Foster the development of our community of faculty and students,
• Maintain an informal style and setting.
