Diploma in Embedded Systems Design
Course Focus
The growing application of embedded systems in day-to-day life has escalated the demand for trained manpower in this fast emerging area. To meet the high quality manpower needs of the industry, C-DAC has launched the Diploma in Embedded Systems Design (DESD) course for Engineers in computers, electronics and IT streams. The Embedded Systems Design course has been designed with equal emphasis on hardware and software to attune Engineers to the needs of the electronics and IT industry for the design and development of the state-of-the-art embedded systems.
Course Structure
The Diploma in Embedded Systems Design (DESD) is a five months fulltime course consisting of six modules and an industry relevant project and a seminar. Each daily session comprises two hours of classroom lecture followed by four hours of lab work. A project work for one month will be assigned to the students during the course.
