Embedded Systems

An embedded system combines customized hardware and software to carry out a specific set of tasks. Every day we benefit from many embedded systems in our cars, in medical devices, in consumer electronics, and in smart home appliances. New applications for embedded systems are constantly being developed. Embedded systems developers must pay particular attention to safety, reliability, and security in the products they design. The Embedded Systems track prepares students to work in this exciting and constantly evolving field.
