Undergraduate Certificate in Embedded Systems

The Undergraduate Certificate in Embedded Systems is offered through the Computer Science and Engineering Department and will educate undergraduate students in the knowledge and skills required to design and test embedded systems, using microcontrollers, system-on-chip, and FPGA devices. Topics include multi-threaded programming on bare-metal, custom real-time operating systems, and embedded Linux systems; implementation of IP stacks for computer networking; network and wireless protocol development for Internet of Things devices; design of real-time operating systems; implementation of RISC processors in FPGA devices; design of advanced digital logic systems; analysis and design of microprocessor systems; and control of systems with electromechanical actuators and sensors. The Certificate in Embedded Systems will be awarded concurrently with an undergraduate degree.
