Is having Circuits 2 a corequisite for Signals and Systems viable?

Click For Summary
The discussion centers on the feasibility of taking Circuits 2 concurrently with Signals and Systems for an Electrical Engineering student seeking a DSP internship. The student expresses concern about not having completed a DSP class and wonders if this will hinder internship opportunities. Participants agree that while Circuits 2 may not be essential for Signals and Systems, a solid understanding of differential equations is important. They emphasize the necessity of grasping concepts like DFTs and FFTs for DSP roles, typically covered in advanced signals courses. The student plans to contact the professor to seek permission for this course arrangement.

Hello all, I am currently studying as an EE and realized I messed up something with my career path. I am not sure if it possible to get an internship at a company for primarily DSP if you haven't taken a DSP class? If not, things could be mended if it were possible to take circuits 2 alongside signals, systems, and transforms. Additionally differential equations will be taken with it. I am assuming there is a standard for the contents of each course, if needed I can put what each class covers at my uni.

If anyone can tell me if this is possible I would greatly appreciate it.

Thinking back to our signals and systems course not having circuits 2 wouldn't have been a big deal. It helped now and then but I'm sure its stuff you could figure out on your own.

However not having DE's that could have been a bit more of a challenge.
 
I just want to note that he will be taking DE in parralell with signals and systems.
Elekromatik, you may have to learn some DE material a few weeks in advance for your signals class.

I would say for you to get a DSP design internship at the very least you have to have a grasp on DFTs and FFTs. I learned those in signals and systems 2. My signals and systems 1 was all continuous (Fourier transforms, Laplace, etc)
 
Alright guys, since you say it is doable I'll go ahead and e-mail the professor and see if he'll let me. Thanks!
 
I am trying to understand how transferring electric from the powerplant to my house is more effective using high voltage. The suggested explanation that the current is equal to the power supply divided by the voltage, and hence higher voltage leads to lower current and as a result to a lower power loss on the conductives is very confusing me. I know that the current is determined by the voltage and the resistance, and not by a power capability - which defines a limit to the allowable...
