Not very over the course of the entire time. In perspective, maybe 2 direct 8051 courses over a total of 100 courses. But as I stated, I don't think there would be any shorter program that offered a more focused approach to just 8051.



Nope, not there. At least not a program that covers 8051. There are other Asc degrees ofered there, but none that cover 8051. But you could enroll and take the first year, which would provide all 2-3 8051 courses and then stop attending. Maybe a solution?



Yes, Irving is the Dallas location. Dallas is surrounded by many cities that are collectively referred to as "Dallas". Irving is the specific city where DeVry is.

University of Texas At Arlington is another good area EE program, but it's going to be a more traditional 4-year program. I don't know what there 8051 coverage is, if any. The other colleges you mentioned either don'thave good EE programs or are all 4-year schools. Also, ITT I believe has a location in this area (or maybe 2?).



Unfortunatly you won't find much that will meet those needs. All programs that I am aware of will be "general" electronics and will offer very little specific 8051 material. DeVryITT is the shortest timeframe available that I am aware of. 9 semesters (3 years with no summer vacation) is no laughing matter so keep this in mind. Can you justify 3 years for 2% of direct 8051 teaching?




Unfortunatly, I don't know of a Dallas school (or any school in the US period) that offers a 1-2 year EE-style degree that mostly is tailored to embedded individuals. DeVry's offering contains mostly general topics as well...I think all schools in the US will. I think your best bet would be to go for a 2 year Asc degree in whatever and study 8051 on your own. I think it's the best your going to do. I don't think you can justify taking 3 years of courses at DeVry with 2% being very good 8051 coverage based on the information above.
