Present days' automotive embedded systems have become multifaceted in nature, and their performance has been enabled by introduction of electronics at all levels of design and manufacturing. The purpose of introducing a course on automotive electronics at under graduate level for the electrical sciences stream was to address the needs of embedded and automotive industries and hence providing the necessary knowledge and skills required for those industries.
This paper discusses the process of mixing cognitive and performance learning objectives into one course; which is realized by integrating laboratory with the theory. The laboratory had a focus of building automotive electronics development and test environment for three main domains of automotive which includes power train, comfort/safety and In-vehicle networking. The paper also discusses about the development of in house experimental trainer modules which demonstrate the entire working of engine management systems.
The laboratory had four different levels of experiments which enabled the students to experience typical automotive embedded system design process. At the same time it is observed that all the levels also address the major three domains of automotive as mentioned earlier. The level one included experiments belonging to automotive sub-systems, demonstration of cut-away modules, level two included model based simulation experiments using MATLAB/SIMULINK &CANalyzer. Level three included experiments on sub module development using sensors, actuators, embedded boards-ARM cortexM3/M4 boards; the last level four was realized through system integration an extended activity which included the integration of sub-modules developed in earlier levels.
The integration of laboratory to the theory course enabled to achieve both technical and professional outcomes of ABET[1]. The outcomes b, c, d, g, i, j, and k were achieved. The paper presents the details of attainment of these outcomes.

It is seen that the number of Electronic Control Units (ECUs) in the automotive has grown significantly in recent years. In today's luxury cars, up to 2500 signals are exchanged by up to 70-80 ECUs. The number communication channels implement required realize such systems is about n2, here n is the number of ECUs in the automobile. This complexity requires the use of communication networks between them and to manage the functionality of these ECUs the Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS) is used. This real world scenario has motivated us to give the hands on experience to students by introducing integrated course projects, which includes the use of Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS) in automotive embedded systems. This activity also involves creating an industry like environment for execution of the project. Deployment of more advanced control strategies and integration of sub modules were the major technical outcomes of the activity.
For executing this activity, the problem statement given was divided into sub-problems and each sub problem is converted to sub module/ECU depicting the industry scenario. The concepts of automotive embedded systems were used during sub module development and during integration the concepts of RTOS were used. The activity provided the method and tool to facilitate the integration of different electronic subsystems coming from various suppliers.
The activity created the feel of real world industry environment amongst the students and enabled to achieve various technical and professional outcomes of ABET. The processes of achieving these outcomes are discussed.

The development of automotive sub systems involves integration of multiple sub modules. Each sub system involves more than one sub component, with possible dependencies between components. The electronic sub systems, usually known as electronic control units(ECUs) are the integrated parts of modern automotives. The development of suchmodules requires the knowledge belonging to diverse engineering domains and also an ability to work in multi disciplinary environment. This paper discusses about an activity attempted for the course on automotive electronics for the third year engineering students of circuit branches. The activity involves providing an experience of development of ECUs which in turn provides an opportunity of getting exposed to industrial environment. An automotive electronics, a core course taught for the students of circuit branches is mainly application oriented involving system level concepts. The course was introduced to cater to the needs of automotive industries. The concepts of entire course can be divided into five main domains; power train, safety systems, body, driver assistance and infotainment systems. Accordingly to complement the learning it was decided to introduce an extended activity in the form of course projects wherein the theme was to develop electronic control units (ECUs) for every domain. An ECU of an automotive has multiple functionalities, each representing a sub-module of a bigger system. The integration of sub-modules to realize a specific ECU was major objective of the activity. The sub-module development involves modelling, hardware/software development and communication protocol implantation. To impart the industry like working culture amongst students, every sub-module belonging to specific ECU was assigned to the students of different department. Sub modules were developed independently by specialized dedicated team of a particular department and were integrated to demonstrate a final ECU by different department teams. The Prototype models with an option of testing on a test vehicle were the results of this activity. The student learning was measured in terms of their ability to work in a team, project management skills and their technical competencies to develop sub-modules and integration of sub modules. The outcomes are also discussed with respect to students placements in automotive industries and attainment of ABET outcomes.Keywords

In recent years Power Electronics and Drives has gained much importance in the Electrical Engineering domain, owing to the growing need for industrial applications, such as Motor Drives, Switched Mode Power Supplies (SMPS) and Electric Vehicle. Electric Drives and Control course is delivered for Electrical and Electronics Engineering junior year students at K.L.E Technological University, India. The course derives the knowledge from the core courses of the program like Electrical Machines, Power Electronics and Control Systems. It is challenging to facilitate the integrated learning experience to students at the junior year with conventional teaching pedagogy. Problem Based Learning (PBL) approach is known to be a fascinating, problem-centered teaching/learning process, that helps the student for a more in-depth understanding of the concepts and to strengthen the application of the knowledge gained by students in theory classes. This paper presents the experience of faculty team adopting a PBL in delivering Electric Drives and Control course for junior year level at K.L.E Technological University. An openended problem in Electric drives and Control laboratory was floated as a PBL activity to integrate the learnt concepts of three courses (Electrical Machines, Power Electronics and Control Systems). Through this approach we are able to increase learning outcome of a student such as applying fundamental knowledge of electrical science, theoretical and practical understanding of a subject, use of modern engineering tool to solve complex problem and to validate the simulation and practical results.Keywords
