  • Abstract
    The rapid introduction of multiple miniaturized sensors in consumer, industrial control and medical devices has exposed a visible gap in engineering training programs. In this paper, we explain how we undertook to fill these gaps at undergraduate, graduate and the project courses. Starting from the same set of design principles, we outline the specific techniques undertaken to serve best the diverse audiences, especially as some of the programs are tailored to diverse audiences.
