Abstract

With rapid advancements and popularity of embedded devices in the digital systems market, undergraduate students in various majors, specifically computer engineering, computer science, electrical engineering, computer engineering technology, and electrical engineering technology, have shown increased interest in learning more about embedded computing systems. Typically, students accumulate knowledge of computing systems through introductory courses that focus on computer arithmetic, microcontroller-based design and computer organization. This paper presents experiences from teaching and redesigning an advanced embedded systems course that integrates various hardware and software concepts to accommodate the needs of interdisciplinary engineering education.
