This page contains news related to the ECE department for the current week. Specifically, it includes information about seminars, exams, travel, research grants, professional news, and personal news.
This newsletter is also emailed by Friday afternoon of the previous week to all faculty, staff, and students in ECE.
If you are not receiving this email, please contact <nancy@ece.northwestern.edu> and we will get you on that email list.
This is the last newsletter of the quarter and the year. Students will be busy preparing for their final exams and faculty will be busy grading the exams. I wish all the students the best of luck on their exams.
On Friday, Dec. 8, we will have an ECE Department Faculty and Staff Holiday Luncheon to celebrate the end of the year and show our appreciation to the outstanding staff members in our department for the fine job they do throughout the year.
I wish everyone Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year.
