It's estimated that 50 – 100 billion things will be connected to the internet by 2030, everything from washing machines to jet engine components to organic items like crops and livestock. The Internet of Things – System Design and Implementation (T427) graduate certificate program prepares students for exciting careers as engineers, developers and more in this fast-growing field.
In this one-year program, students will explore the entire IoT ecosystem and develop an understanding of this technology's ethical and legal applications. They will examine the various systems and processes that make up the IoT, including the following:
- electronic sensors and actuators
- network technology that enables devices to communicate with each other
- cloud and edge computing devices that allow the IoT to function on a global scale
- software code that ties all the devices together
This program includes practical experience and applied learning. Students will use their knowledge by exploring real-world problems and designing, developing and installing IoT solutions.
