BPUTSYLLABUS

This document provides an overview of two courses: Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) and Wireless Sensor Networks. The MEMS course covers micromachining techniques, microsystem modeling and design, and applications of MEMS including sensors, actuators, optical and radio frequency devices, and microfluidics. The Wireless Sensor Networks course covers topics such as network deployment, localization and tracking, synchronization, wireless communications, routing, sensor network databases, and security. Both courses reference multiple textbooks for further reading.
