The impact made by professional electronic CAD tools and engineering workstations, upon undergraduate courses in the department, is outlined. Student groups have successfully designed, simulated and tested digital systems, which had been implemented as gate arrays. The interest throughout the department has highlighted areas for integrated mechanical/electronic projects.
