IoT Academic Partnerships

Many industry experts and excited consumers have pegged the Internet of Things (IoT) as the next biggest advancement in the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) field. IoT represents a new future for the ways in which businesses, governments, and consumers interact with the physical world.

Rugged Telemetry is proud to have created the first STEM IoT program enabling college and high school students to get meaningful, hands-on experience with advanced hardware and software systems that will inspire and teach them about the evolving ecosystem of IoT technology.

IoT for Stem

IoT refers to systems of interrelated software and hardware devices that exchange data with each other over a connective communication network. Examples of IoT in business include such things as remote tank monitoring and fleet management systems, while consumer-grade examples include smart home technologies and cloud-based security systems.

From utilities and agriculture to education and healthcare, IoT is revolutionizing every aspect of society and business, making it easier than ever for individuals and organizations to monitor up-to-the-minute, real-time data and developments, as well as responding to changing situations in an instant.

‍According to Statista, by 2030 the global IoT market is expected to generate revenues in excess of one trillion dollars. That makes it one of the most lucrative and fastest growing industries within STEM. At Rugged Telemetry, we believe that a practical IoT education will only become increasingly important for STEM students in the coming years.
