SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the value of additional coursework in Signal Processing and Embedded Systems for students pursuing a Master's in Electrical Engineering (MSEE) with a focus on Electromagnetics, RF, and Microwaves. Participants agree that while these subjects differ from core EM and RF topics, they are beneficial for enhancing programming skills and broadening career opportunities in the telecommunications industry. Key areas of interest include Phase-Locked Loops (PLL), RF Integrated Circuits (RFIC), integrated circuit design, and digital communication methods such as 128/256 Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM).
