Upon completion of the course, students will:

• Individually, or in pairs, be able to put together key components of IoT towards building a prototype solution to solve a specific problem A. These hands-on exercises will also help the students in building the IoT prototype for their team project, and train them to be effective IoT solutions architects.
• As a team, given a case scenario B, be able to apply concepts learnt in class to clearly specify the problem statement, describe the IoT solution, and present the actionable wisdom to various key stakeholders. Through short quizzes, this will help the students prepare for the in-class written assignment, and will train them to be effective IoT solutions consultants.
