Internet of Things Engineering Minor

Print Degree Planner (opens a new window) |

The Internet of Things Engineering minor introduces the concepts, tools and techniques that are involved in designing and programming electronic devices that involve sensing, computation, and communication. The minor prepares students to understand the design tradeoffs present in aggregating and processing information generated by these networked devices either locally or in the cloud. Students completing this minor will be ready to effectively compete in industries related to embedded and networked systems and IoT technologies.
