CollegeSummer session goes really fast. Straightforward material, good instructor.
Very good lectures, if you want a better grade than a B- go to sections and office hours.
Fantastic overall course. The engagement Yoga demonstrates, as well as the effort he puts into recruiting companies, is absolutely fantastic. I hear overall better sentiment towards the CE capstone than the EE capstone for example.
While the subject is definitely not my strength or passion, Professor Isukapalli does a great job of teaching embedded systems fundamentals. I think his organization is very good and I appreciate the lecture slides/format. Also, the iClicker questions are good at making sure you are actually retaining the lecture material!
Excellent professor! I second the opinion below, TESLA interview-70% questions from this course. Highly recommended.
Most useful course I have taken at UCSB. I had two interviews in embedded systems this month and many questions were from the material in this course. Very well taught. Exam questions were similar to homework problems. Labs take time but you will learn a lot!
