A project-orientated radar systems course: a novel experiment in co-operative pedagogy

This paper describes a novel approach to teaching a course on radar systems. The course contained a radar design project that was assigned, monitored and evaluated by U.S. Air Force personnel. Students obtained useful experience in ‘real-world’ design problems, team effort, technical writing and presentation. Similar cooperative ventures are recommended.
