ABSTRACT
In 1999 the Technical University of Braunschweig introduced a new study program dedicated to embedded systems design: Computer and Communication System Engineering tries to bring together the traditional curricula in computer science and microelectronics design. It covers the gap between these two disciplines providing skills urgently requested by industry and science. In the meantime, the new study program has also been introduced at other universities and our experience shows that it is well accepted by both industry, and students. This is also reflected in a close collaboration with Intel Braunschweig Labs, who have sponsored a chair in VLSI system design to complement the curriculum in that field. Recently our Diploma program has been transformed into a 2-phased program with a separate Bachelors and a Masters following the recommendations of the Bologna process.

Embedded systems education: future directions, initiatives, and cooperation
Special issue: The first workshop on embedded system education (WESE)In this paper we present the summary of and results from the 2005 Workshop on Embedded Systems Education (WESE2005). This workshop was held in conjunction with EMSOFT 2005, the leading conference for research in embedded systems software. The workshop ...
Undergraduate Computational Science and Engineering Education
It is widely acknowledged that computational science and engineering (CSE) will play a critical role in the future of the scientific discovery process and engineering design. However, in recent years computational skills have been deemphasized in the ...
A multidisciplinary project for undergraduate summer research in computer systems
ACM SE '14: Proceedings of the 2014 ACM Southeast Regional ConferenceThe need and benefit for a multidisciplinary undergraduate research project are obvious. In computer systems, students are required to gain knowledge in computer software and hardware which spans across several disciplines including Electrical ...
