AIMS
This major trains ESEO engineers to be proficient in developing an entire embedded system, from specifications to completion, including the computing aspect. They will be able to discuss with specialists involved in the development from different fields, such as signal processing, automation, electronics, transmission, EMC and more. Embedded systems are hardly known to the general public today, but they are already very much a part of our daily lives. They are at the forefront of innovation in many key areas of the future! It is a fast-growing sector that has been experiencing a shortage of specialised engineers for several years. Engineers in this field are therefore highly sought after by many industrialists.
ACQUIRED SKILLS
At the end of their training, students will be capable of :
- identifying, that is understanding the client’s expectations and needs,
- designing a system in collaboration with various specialists in the embedded field,
- implementing and testing the future system.
The aim is to provide a reliable and high performance product as expected by the customer. The implementation stage is focused on software development and the use of existing electronic components.
CAREER OPPORTUNITIES
Career opportunities are mainly found in all industrial sectors involving embedded systems, especially those with safety or security needs, such as the transport, defense and medical sectors, but now also in the fields of IoT, banking, telecoms, and many more. Not only are these opportunities to be found in development, testing and quality management positions, but also in positions related to management or trade activities.
