Today’s embedded systems development ranges from microprocessor-based control systems, to systems-on-chip (SoC) design, and device software development. A myriad of implementations can be found in consumer electronics, medical devices, and commercial and military applications.
This program looks at embedded systems engineering as a synergistic function between hardware and software device design and development. Participants learn the essential concepts of embedded systems development through a practical hands-on approach utilizing industry design automation (EDA) tools and design kits.
Who Should Attend
Hardware/software engineers, computer engineers, communications and networking engineers, control systems engineers, and other technical professionals involved in embedded systems design and development.
Certificate Prerequisites
Candidates must complete EECS 805, C Programming for Embedded
Systems; and EECS X497.2, Introduction to Digital Logic
and Hardware Architecture; or possess equivalent experience
or education.
All requirements must be completed within five (5) years after the student enrolls in his/her first course.
Certificate Requirements
A certificate is awarded upon completion of 15 credit units (9 required and 6 elective credit units), with a grade point average of "B" or better.
