Thisinitiative will also support undergraduate research in IoT, thus affording students an opportunityto gain a deeper understanding of the subject, in a real-world context. The proposed curriculumframework would support learning outcomes that transcend a basic understanding of concepts,and aim towards the application of acquired skills in designing, building and deploying IoTdevices for a variety of applications.

mathematics instead of conceptual understanding, modernundergraduate engineering students have more difficulty with even basic algebraic and numericalanalysis. In addition, engineering students do not always see the relevance of learningmathematics to their future careers or even to their future college coursework [2].However, these same students are still graduating with engineering degrees and going to work inindustry or in research. One possible reason for this is the potential slipping of mathematicalstandards in universities. A study comparing the mathematics performance of students at acertain university in 1997 and in 1990 found that students with average grades in 1997performed just as poorly as students with very low grades in 1990 [3].This
