CNE 455 Cellular Networks
Credits: 3 (3,0,0) Prerequisite: Senior Level Standing

This course provides knowledge and understanding of 4G cellular networks with focusing on
Long Term Evolution (LTE) components, channels, layers, procedures, and dimensioning.
Students will also understand the migration scenarios from 2G/3G to 4G and beyond. Finally,
the course gives a brief introduction/overview to 5G.

CNE 459 Special Topics in Communications Engineering
Credits: 3 (3,0,0) Prerequisite: Senior Level Standing,
This course is a 3 credit hour course that is meant to introduce new emerging subjects or issues

theme and same number, and if approved by the department it can be given a fixed number
with a name that reflects the theme.

CNE 458 Undergraduate Research in Communication
Credits: 3 (3,0,0) Prerequisite: Senior Level Standing,
Cumulative average of 3.0 or above,
Approval of faculty member supervising the research, and
Approval of the CNE Undergraduate Committee.

This course is an opportunity for an undergraduate student to obtain research experience, and
is recommended for those students wishing to do research or otherwise go beyond what is
required in normal classes. Often these experiences lead to further research, to graduate
school projects, and theses.

CNE 490 Senior Project
Credits: 1 (0,2,0) Prerequisite: ENGL 301, Senior Level Standing

A supervised project in groups of normally 3 students aimed at providing practical experience
in some aspects of electrical and electronics engineering. Students are expected to define the
project, state its objectives, complete a literature survey, set project specifications and select a
design method. They are also expected to do some preliminary modeling and analysis and to
acquire the necessary material needed for the completion of the project in the spring term. A
professional report and an oral presentation are also required from the students.

CNE 491 Internship
Credits: 10 (0,0,0) Prerequisite: Completion of 90 Credit hours.

In addition to taking extra three elective courses, each is 3 credits, an eight-week professional
training course in electrical engineering is required. The training is one credit. The program
combines classroom learning with work experience to assist students in applying their
knowledge and skills to real life situations and enable our students to create future quality
career in response to the evolving of local economic and workforce development needs.
Students are expected to prepare and present a report of their work experience.
