The four-semester M.Tech. Embedded Systems programme is essential for practising engineers in the embedded systems industry (automotive, avionics, consumer electronics, medical devices, defence, and processor design) who want to gain knowledge in state-of-the-art tools and theories. The core topics span over embedded control, real-time operating systems, model-based design and verification, processor architecture, chip design and implementation of embedded systems. @ PROGRAMME HIGHLIGHTS Enables students to gain a holistic approach to the design of embedded hardware and software systems * Provides practical insights into embedded system design through experiments using simulation software such as Kiel, Code Composer Studio, Star UML * Hardware and software design assignments and exercises help students gain practical knowledge ‘on Embedded System Design * Well-defined work integrated exercises to transform classroom learning into practice * Guided internship project to assimilate both technical and ‘execution knowledge * Allow the students to script the programme and its various modules to suit the requirement of their respective organisations © PROGRAMME OBJECTIVES The programme aims to create Embedded Designers who will be able to: * Design, describe, validate and optimise embedded electronic systems in different industrial applications Define hardware and software communication and control requirements and be able to effectively bridge the gap between hardware and software design in different industrial production contexts + To.use tools for the development and debugging of programmes implemented on microcontrollers and DSPs© LEARNING OUTCOMES * Design systems for real-time processing On completion of the programme, a participant Design systems that are fault-tolerant or will have the ability to: safety critical * Show an ability to integrate knowledge, in * ‘To develop, test & analyse new an independent way and with a critical eye, microarchitectures for embedded identify and constrain, formulate and processors ® handle complex problems within the area © ELIGIBILITY Bachelor of Engineering in EEE/ECE/ENI/ Computer Science or equivalent, with minimum one year of relevant work experience.

This Application Form Number should be referred in all future correspondence with BITS Pilani. 7. _ Inthe printout of the downloaded Application Form, you will notice on page no. 3 a section called the Employer Consent Form. Complete the Employer Consent Form. This form needs to be signed and stamped by your organisation's HR or any other authorised signatory of the company. Further on page no. 4 of the printed Application Form is a section called the Mentor Consent Form. You must find a senior person from your employing organisation who is willing to become your mentor. The Mentor Consent Form needs to be signed by the mentor. The role of a mentor: A mentor is a senior officer of the student-employee who has been nominated by his employing organisation or is a person in a senior position willing to undertake and discharge the academic responsibilities on his own volition. It is expected of the mentor to possess adequate qualifications to guide the student. Typically for the B.S. programmes, mentor is expected to have minimum educational qualification of the level of Integrated First Degree of BITS or its equivalent such as B.E/BITS B.S./B.Tech/M.Sc./A.M.L.E. etc. and for the M.S./M.Phil programmes of the level of Higher Degree of BITS or its equivalent such as M.E./M.S./M.Tech./ MPhiL/M.D. etc. However, senior professionals holding a First Degree of BITS or its equivalent cm10. such as B,E/M,Sc./M.B.,A/M.C.A/M.B.B.S. etc. and having a minimum of 5-years of relevant work experience, may also be proposed as mentors. Preference will be given to applicants having a suitable mentor from the same employing organisation. Wherever the proposed mentor is not from the same employing organisation as that of the applicant, a supporting document giving justification for the same should be duly forwarded by the applicant's employer. The mentor will assist the course instructors in terms of the following: * Achieving the set of academic objectives specified by the instructors * Verifying if a student is indeed adhering to the plan of study given in the handout * Monitoring involvement of the student in self-study, time planning, understanding of ‘concepts and their use, developing self-reliant articulation, awareness of and enthusiasm for new pedagogy, responsibility to meet deadlines, develops familiarity with the library, etc. * Conducting certain evaluation components like seminar, assignment, project, case study, etc. Further on page no. 5 of the downloaded Application Form is a Checklist of Enclosures/ Attachments. ‘a.
