Electronics and Embedded Technology
Sub-disciplines
Electronics and Embedded Technology are two interconnected fields of technology that specialize in providing technical knowledge for electronic systems. This field of engineering uses the Science of Physics and Mathematics to strategically systemise hardware and software systems for carrying out specific functions. The areas concerning Electronics Engineering include microwave circuits, industrial network fundamentals, antennas, and wireless communication. Embedded Technology is interlinked with computer systems, specifically computer hardware and software programs with fixed or temporary functionality. As computing systems, Embedded Technology is used across industries and in varied sectors. Devices used for agricultural processing, medical equipment, cameras, mobile phones and, even airplanes, are dependable on embedded systems. Modern automobiles, machines and equipment, mobile phones, and even household appliances consist of embedded systems like sensors, operating systems, and microphones either to perform special monitoring and control functions or to furnish entertainment. These embedded systems exist as a smaller part of an electronic device operating in a real-time environment.
Electronics Engineering provides an experiential learning space for learners with a focus on holistic growth and development. The emphasis on cohort-based learning, projects, and skill development, trains students to fare well in the professional realm and evolve as responsible engineers. Besides designing electronics and control systems, Electronic Engineers apply Mathematics and Science to study and scrutinize complex electrical problems to undertake thorough problem-solving measures. Embedded Technology Engineers maintain embedded systems after the process of designing, development, and testing is complete with the hardware and software proceedings.
