Popis: The paper proposes a framework to redesign a course as an integrated course through experiential learning. Initially the courses were designed for class room lecturing and evaluated through written examinations. It is observed that engineering students learn better by experiential learning. The learning is enhanced with more of hands-on experience along with class room learning. Towards this, the ECE curriculum is reframed to promote integrated courses by including hands on experience along with traditional class room teaching. In this regard the courses, Multimedia Signal Processing (MSP) for post graduates and Information Theory Coding (ITC) for under graduates were redesigned as integrated courses. The implementation activity was structured to explore the concepts and apply to arrive at better engineering solutions. This transformation in course design helped students to understand theoretical concepts beyond the class room teaching and it supported them in defining the areas of their projects.
