such as creating patch antennas with copper tape and use theantennas with low-cost microcontrollers such as Arduinos for basic demonstration of wirelesscommunications. Although high school courses may be an early stage to introduce complexelectromagnetics, the manufacturing and use of simple antenna topologies, especially patchantennas, can establish a strong foundation for future learning and encourage students to chooseSTEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) careers.At the post-secondary education level, the emphasis shifts to understanding either practicalapplications of antennas for a specific purpose such as cybersecurity-focused programs or deeperunderstanding of electromagnetics and other types of antennas.

The students strongly agreed that the courseprepared them better for future engineering careers.The future scope of the EMC course development is critical to ensure that the course remainsrelevant and effective. The course should be updated to incorporate new technologies and practices,expand hands-on exercises and projects, collaborate with industry partners, and incorporate onlinelearning. By continuously updating and improving the course, instructors and administrators canensure that it remains relevant and effective for future generations of electronic design experts. VI.
