Welcome to EEN 417: Embedded Microprocessor System Design, led by Dr. Eric Rozier at the University of Miami. This course explores embedded systems, focusing on key design, analysis, and implementation principles. Students will engage in active learning through group projects and hands-on labs. We will cover essential concepts like reliability, security, and compliance within embedded systems. Students are encouraged to think critically and challenge assumptions while enhancing their knowledge of microprocessor systems. Join us in advancing your skills in this dynamic field!
