Part 1 will have you map out the project using a breadboard for an overview understanding of how each component needs to be connected correctly. Part 2 will teach you how to code your design using Arduino IDE. Part 3 will teach you how to design your own PCB based off of what you made on your breadboard and how to order them to be fabricated.

Ask A Career Coach: Should I include class projects on my resume?  

Absolutely! Incorporating your class projects into your resume offers a glimpse into your background and showcases the skills you've acquired. It's also a great way to highlight your abilities in writing, communication, organization, and collaboration. If you decide to include a class project, be concise and detailed. Share the project's purpose, the steps you took to complete it, how you pitched it, the results, and whether you'd do something differently next time. Check out page 21 in our Career Success Guide for an example.
