As one of the initial members of the Global IoT Team at Ingram Micro that heads Ingram Micro’s localized IoT teams around the world, I am at present involved in developing one of a kind marketplace for selling IoT solutions, kits and components (Sensors, Gateways, Connectivity, Cloud) for Ingram Micro which is the largest distributor of technology products in the world, hence in the best position to do so.
I am also involved in engineering curated, repeatable, vertical IoT solutions as proof of concepts for Ingram Micro’s own brand of IoT solutions in verticals like Fleet management, Retail, Environmental, Smart Building, Healthcare, Logistics.
The MECPS degree at UC Irvine has been the wind beneath my wings (just to put it in a sentence). It gave me the domain knowledge about Cyber Physical Systems popularly called IoT (Internet of Things) these days and the right skills through a well thought out custom made program structure that gave me the best of both worlds – Hardware and Software. It also gave me the opportunity to apply all the skills gathered through the course of the program, in a capstone project.
My job is very data driven, and fortunately, I tried my hand at data analysis and processing during my capstone project. My understanding of how sensors work and how data is collected from one of the MECPS courses also has helped me a lot in identifying the sources of error in my data. The expedited timeline of the course also helped me get used to working in a job with multiple deadlines.
If you have a great interest in the embedded system, I believe that MECPS is a very good choice. The whole learning process will not only help you to understand the embedded system but also provide long-term support for your future work and study. Because of MECPS, which provides me with a solid theoretical foundation and programming skills, I am able to keep confident during my job search and finally get my favorite offer.
The MECPS program is constantly evolving and has helped me develop my systems thinking skills. Also, the team-based capstone project promoted application-based collaboration to apply what we learned throughout the program.
The Embedded and Cyber-Physical Master Program is a great choice for anyone with limited experience in computer science and engineering. The hands-on projects provide practical skills that are invaluable for success in this field. The knowledgeable faculty and industry connections make it an excellent choice for career advancement in this field. Overall, this program has been exceptional and prepared me well for a career in this exciting and rapidly growing field.
For me, the MECPS program is a really decent program for student who want to reinforce their theoretical background of computer science and electrical engineering. So with their smooth course design, you can know that everything you need to know from the hardware side to the software side. And in the end, there’s a capstone for every student. So we can do a really good project to let everybody know what you’ve learned in the end.
So to me, MECPS is a really fun and challenging program in the same time. For the challenging part, the courses and especially the capstone project, it really enhanced my knowledge that I’ve learned before, fully utilizing everything I’ve learned before to make a great project. And for the fun side, the faculty really gave us a lot of fun events to attend. I really like the program a lot.
