A new era of computing has arrived with the embedding of computational intelligence in various engineered and natural systems. Networked devices at the edge of the internet are no longer merely computers. Rather, they are diverse machines capable of sensing, learning, acting and interacting with humans and the physical world around them — at scales ranging from one person to the planetary.

At UCLA Samueli School of Engineering, the “Internet of Things” (IoT) area of study will delve into many applications such as mixed-reality spaces, connected communities, smart transportation, precision mobile health and more “smart and connected” systems at all scales in diverse spheres.

The UCLA IoT track will integrate faculty expertise from Electrical and Computer Engineering and Computer Science. The curriculum will focus on architectural abstractions, theoretical foundations, algorithmic methods, hardware/software technologies and applications relating to the design, implementation and fabrication of IoT systems.
