A course of Probability and Random Processes is regularly taken by many engineering students, because the study of this topic is fundamental to a wide range of disciplines. Usually students recognize that learning probability and random processes is a struggle. The primary reason is that the course materials are abstract and the concepts are difficult to understand. Currently published textbooks include computer exercises/projects to help students learn the concepts, primarily, the development of an intuition for randomness. But most of these computer exercises/projects are pure theoretical, which do not have a clear link with real applications. In this paper, we will report the effort made to design application-oriented computer projects as a complement to current textbook resources for a graduate-level class. Most of these projects are designed based on the applications of probability and random processes in Digital Image Processing and Digital Speech Processing, two major areas for the application of this knowledge. Image and speech signals have very vivid presentation, which can motivate students to learn; image and speech signals can be easily manipulated in MATLAB, the widely used engineering software, so students are able to do these projects without specific background. Some projects are in Digital Communications, where probability and random processes theories are widely used as well. The preliminary outcome is discussed. The extension of this experience to an undergraduate level course is also presented.
