Dennis Trotter Jr.’s Profile

Computers & Electronics
I have a strong technical background developed through many years of learning and understanding all of the technology used in all the electrical, electronic, and mechanical systems which make up our modern living world.
I now want to use my past gained working knowledge, with my newly gained scholar knowledge, to help design new systems which will incorporate new digitally designed head ends to control those systems, along with new clean energy sources to power them for maximum efficiency.

Students do 3 projects, 1 individual and 2 in groups and choose one of the group projects to present at the end of the semester. The extra classroom hour is designed to facilitate a hands-on feel to the course including a heavy use of MS Excel.
