An undergraduate course on model based system engineering for embedded systems
Model based system engineering (MBSE) is becoming an industrial standard to design embedded systems. Therefore, its integration in electrical and computer engineering education is critical. This article presents an undergraduate course on MBSE for embedded systems through the formulation of course learning outcomes, identification of the course contents, and the construction of a holistic view for the contents. The holistic view of the course binds the contents by providing the modeling methodology, the transformation engine, and the simulation environment of an end to end framework. Furthermore, students obtain integrated design experience, through problem based learning, using three case studies. Assessment through quantitative evaluation and students' feedback show the viability of the presented course.
