The Communication Sciences Institute (CSI) was formed in 1982 as an
organized research unit within the Department of Electrical
Engineering. CSI provides an environment for faculty, students,
research sponsors, and practicing engineers to interact. The primary
goal of CSI is to impact engineering practice through basic research
and education. To achieve this goal, we look to our research sponsors
and industrial affiliates for the most challenging and relevant
problems. These problems are addressed by CSI faculty and student
researchers who are among the best in the world.
Closely
associated with CSI is the communications group within the Electrical
Engineering Department. The communications group is made up of faculty
who regularly teach classes and supervise research in the
communications area. Thus, most CSI faculty are in the communications
group. The purpose of the group is to manage coursework and student
affairs for those students interested in communications.
