Courses that require use of UNIX in EE:

1. Mamat - the sister course of Matam.

2. Intro to Data Structures and Algorithms - Sort of the equivalent of
"Data Structures 1" and "Algorithms in Graph Theory".

3. Structure of OS - much the same course as the CS one, covering perhaps
some of the material of "Intro to OS". Mandates that the exercises would
run on Linux.

4. Computer Graphics. (given only in Spring semesters)

5. Compilation Theory. (given only in Spring semesters)

There are others, of course.

I know many EE students attended our previous installments. Such students
would probably be less interested in "fun things you can do with Linux"
lectures.

He who re-invents the wheel, understands much better how a wheel works.
