In this video interview, Rea Callender, vice president of global education at Altium (now part of Renesas), tells EE Times' Senior India Correspondent Yashasvini Razdan that the company's goal is to “support the next generation of electronics designers” by providing students with free access to design platforms such as Altium Designer, Quick Connect Studio, and Quick Connect Kits. “We offer a curriculum that covers all aspects of electronic product design—embedded systems, PCB design, and more—so that when students enter the workforce, they already have hands-on experience,” he said.
