You probably already have the basic skills. I would get one of the entry level MCUs and just start playing. You can start with the Arduino, TI MSP430, PSOC4, or any one of the many basic devices out there. If you need inspiration for projects, go through the PSOC 100 projects in 100 days. It is an excellent tutorial on using an MCU for many projects. The key to success is to understand the tools you plan to use, learn the terminology, and by all means have a portfolio of projects that you can show off. Doers get jobs. DAB

Hi Shadab. You received some great answers on this thread. I really like DAB and John Beetem's comments about the ability to communicate effectively. If you're interested, we've partnered with TI on a free online class called "Embedded Systems: Shape the World" . Since you've already completed a EE degree, you might be able to fly through the coursework, but it focuses on the TI Teva C development board and is taught by Jon Valvano at the University of Texas at Austin. The class begins on January 22. I happen to be taking it, myself, and hope to learn more about embedded design! Hope this helps! Sagar
