Title
Teaching the Internet of Things: The first three years
Abstract
This paper describes our experience of designing and delivering a course on the Internet of Things (IoT) to Masters level students. The course runs intensively over one week with 75% of the content delivered in a semi-flipped style and with a solid focus on practical, hands-on exercises. The emphasis is on systems integration enabling students to build a complete, working IoT system comprising three layers, namely sensors, connectivity and data analytics. While the course is targeted at graduate students in Electronic and Electrical Engineering (EEE) and Computer Science (CS), our student cohort is very diverse with students having completed their first degree in fields such as Physics, Telecommunications and Information Technology. A unique feature of the course lies in strong collaboration with key industrial partners, some being actively involved in the course delivery. The course is proving to be a popular option choice and has received strongly positive student feedback.
