Abstract
The area of embedded systems (ES) has been gaining momentum in recent years. Such systems are used in a wide spectrum of application areas in industry. According to experts, the demand for knowledgeable and skilled academicians in the area of ES engineering (ESE) is expected to continue to grow. This led to increasing recognition by the industry and the academy of the need in designated curricula for training graduates in ESE. This paper describes a distinctive program for a B. Sc. degree in ESE, developed at the CS Department of Holon Academic Institute of Technology (HAIT). The proposed program essentially differs from the programs in traditional computing disciplines: it is multi-disciplinary in its nature and is intended to provide a broad integrative knowledge in a wide spectrum of areas required for ES development: hardware, software, real time, control and signal processing, and technology management. The program combines teaching theoretical principles with exposure to advanced technologies in order to prepare the graduates for successful integration into high-tech projects of the modern industry
