Overview
The embedded systems minor integrates computer science and engineering, focusing on programming microprocessors and designing hardware systems. These skills are essential in robotics, where embedded systems control sensors, actuators, and decision-making algorithms. Students also explore applications in the Internet of Things (IoT), including smart devices, wearables, automotive systems, and medical technologies. With hands-on experience in circuit integration and low-level programming, the minor prepares students for careers in robotics, embedded AI, and advanced automation.
Requirements
CSCI-110, 320, 410, ENGR-130, 230, MATH-261, PHYS-250 or 260, 270. Eight credits must be unique to the minor.
