About This Program
This is a hands-on hardware + software program. You'll design circuits, write firmware, prototype on breadboards, design PCBs, and build end-to-end IoT systems that connect physical devices to cloud dashboards. Every module includes a practical lab: you'll build something that actually works — a temperature monitoring system, a motor controller, a smart agriculture sensor node.
What You'll Be Able to Do
You will design a PCB, write firmware, connect it to the cloud, and build a dashboard — a complete IoT product from concept to working prototype, ready for your portfolio.
Who Should Attend
- Electronics and ECE engineers wanting practical IoT development skills
- Software developers interested in hardware and embedded systems
- Product designers building IoT-enabled products
- Industrial automation engineers upgrading to connected systems
- Hobbyists wanting professional-grade embedded skills
- Manufacturing companies training maintenance teams on IoT
Prerequisites
Basic understanding of electronics (voltage, current, resistors, Ohm's law). Basic C programming. No prior embedded or PCB design experience required.

Curriculum Breakdown
5 modules — 7 Weeks (140 Hours) of hands-on, project-based learning.
Module 1: Microcontroller Programming & Sensor Interfacing
ESP32 with Arduino IDE and PlatformIO. GPIO: digital I/O, PWM, ADC, interrupts. Sensors: temperature (DHT22, DS18B20), humidity, pressure, motion, distance, current. Actuators: relays, MOSFETs, servo motors. Communication: UART, I2C, SPI. Displays: OLED, TFT LCD. Data logging to SD card. Power management: deep sleep, battery selection, solar charging.
Module 2: Connectivity & IoT Communication
WiFi: connecting ESP32, HTTP client/server, REST API. MQTT: publish-subscribe, QoS levels, topic design. GSM/LTE: SIM800/SIM7000, AT commands. LoRa/LoRaWAN for remote sensors. Bluetooth/BLE for mobile app connectivity. Choosing connectivity: range, power, data rate, cost comparison.
Module 3: PCB Design with KiCad
Schematic design: component selection, symbol creation, connecting circuits. PCB layout: board outline, component placement, trace routing, copper pours. Design rules: trace width, clearance, via sizing. Custom footprints. Gerber generation. DFM considerations. Ordering from manufacturers. Soldering: through-hole and SMD techniques.
Module 4: Cloud Integration & IoT Data Pipeline
IoT cloud platforms: Azure IoT Hub, AWS IoT Core, ThingsBoard. Device provisioning and authentication. Data ingestion via MQTT. Cloud-to-device messaging. Edge computing. Building dashboards with Grafana. Integrating IoT data into ERP systems for production tracking and maintenance alerts.
Module 5: Capstone — End-to-End IoT Product
Design and build a complete IoT system: sensor selection, PCB design, firmware, cloud connectivity, dashboard. Example projects: Smart energy monitor, agricultural soil moisture system, predictive maintenance sensor, remote water level monitoring. Working prototype, PCB design files, source code, project report.
