Every course combines knowledge with hands-on application, using state-of-the-art facilities and real projects. With each semester, the proportion of project work increases &ndash; from the first concept to a fully functional prototype.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>From Idea to Prototype<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Electronics and Computer Engineering students develop projects that make technology come alive:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fh-joanneum.at\/en\/project\/crazycar\/\"><strong>CrazyCar<\/strong><\/a> &ndash; In the third semester, students in the Embedded Systems course design an autonomous vehicle in which sensors, control systems, and software merge into a self-driving system.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Electronic Circuits<\/strong> &ndash; In the fourth semester, students design their own circuits and PCBs, which are later manufactured.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Prototyping &amp; Device Assembling<\/strong> &ndash; In the fifth semester, students handle assembly, integration, and commissioning, creating complete devices from concept to working prototype.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
