-A mandatory hardware laboratory component is required for COSC3215 (this is why the course has 4 credit weighting). The laboratory is weekly and requires attendance during the student's lab session. If you cannot attend your lab session you will not be able to continue in the course. Students will work in pairs.
+[[laboratory:start| Lab information]]
-Labs require preparatory work, which must be completed and approved prior to starting the lab. YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO START THE LAB IF YOU HAVE NOT SUBMITTED COMPLETE PREPATORY WORK. Students are required to document their lab work in their lab notebooks and with other appropriate documentation. This includes documenting all data collected and answering all questions posed. Students must present the documentation, answer questions about their approach, and demo their lab to the TA at the end of the lab session. Final documentation including all code and design documents should be electronically submitted using the ‘submit’ facility on Prism within 24 hours following the end of the lab session.
-The laboratory is hands on and students should have experience with electronic circuits, computer organization and digital logic (e.g. strongly recommended or prerequisite courses are Phys 3150, COSC 2021, COSC 3201).
