Abstract

Hardware control is becoming a dominating topic in the field of engineering. Hands-on experience is one of the most crucial skills a fresh graduated engineer needs in order to find a job in industry or in academia. Raspberry PI is a new, user-friendly, open source, technology that allows developers to design and implement complex embedded systems using a small size and advanced single chip. This paper discusses the integration or Raspberry PI technology in the education of electrical and computer engineering curriculum, and its effect on the career of a freshly graduated electrical and computer engineer.
