DR.Ir.H.Rhiza S Sadjad, M.S.E.E.
The important mission that I am carrying now is helping the Department to establish a new area of study in addition to the two old areas of study, i.e. Electrical Power Systems and Telecommunication. The new area includes 3 (three) major areas in Electrical Engineering, namely Electronics, Computer Engineering and Control Engineering all in one package of curricula. It's kind of hard, isn't it? Sort of a mission impossible ..... Anyway, we insist to try our best ...
After trying teaching many courses since 1995, I decided that my "favourite" sequence of undergraduate-courses is (Sorry, I have no time to develop my own descriptions of the courses I teach, so I link them to some related course homepage somewhere in the world..... to provide examples here):
The three courses above are intended to provide undergrad-EE students "strong" background and basics to take elective courses in Control Area in the final year(s) of their program. Elective courses are fun to teach, I enjoy teaching the following senior level courses:
Outside Control Area, I gave up teaching MICROELECTRONIC DEVICES, DIGITAL SYSTEMS DESIGN and IC TECHNOLOGY a couple of years ago, because I did not feel competent to teach them ..... But occasionally I still teach ELECTRONIC INSTRUMENTATION SYSTEMS, ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS DESIGN, INDUSTRIAL/POWER ELECTRONICS (for both graduate and undergraduate programs) and TELECOMMUNICATION TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS (a course that I teach based on my "sabbathical leave" experience in industry: PT CMI Bandung).
The most exciting courses that I have been teaching are COMMUNICATION and INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY for Social Sciences graduate students and HUMAN and COMPUTER INTERACTION for a private school of Computer and Management Information Systems in town. O, yes, as part of my "service to the community", I teach at several private universities in town. It's necessary to earn a moderately good living here. I also give lectures around on INTERNET in INDONESIA and a little about COMPUTER NETWORK to participate in promoting the beauty of this new media and to help our society to enter the (what so called) "global information era". My lectures were delivered in Bahasa Indonesia, these are my favorites: PIDATO-1, PIDATO-2 and PIDATO-3.
Beginning in the year of 2000, the Department of Electrical Engineering Hasanuddin University will implement the new "Curriculum 2000". My contribution to this new curriculum includes these 11 (eleven) courses. I promise myself to take care of these eleven courses for the next five years ..........Well, for the moment, you may read this nice article.
