PGCert in Embedded Systems Development (Optional Co-op)

Embedded Systems Development is a four-term Ontario College Graduate Certificate covering hardware and software skills for the embedded systems industry. The curriculum combines applied projects and lab work to prepare graduates for careers designing and building embedded hardware and firmware, working across the hardware-software boundary that embedded products depend on. Students can choose an optional one-term co-op work placement in the embedded systems industry in place of the Guided Career Management course, gaining industry experience alongside classroom learning. The program suits students seeking hands-on preparation for roles in embedded systems development, covering both the technical foundations of the field, such as microcontroller programming and circuit-level design, and practical, project-based application of that knowledge in lab and applied-project settings before graduation.
