[Eecs_phd] Announcement for Spring 2025: EE 4773/5773 – Foundations of Hardware Security

[Hunter, Tiffany]

Dear Students,
I am excited to announce the course offering for Spring 2025: EE 4773/5773 – Foundations of Hardware Security. This 3-credit course is open to undergraduate and graduate students and counts as a technical or senior elective.
Course Outline
The course covers basic concepts in hardware security which will cover topics, the global hardware supply chain, hardware life cycle, hardware design tools, hardware attacks and countermeasures. Lab sessions will give students hands on experience with performing attacks, developing countermeasures, and implementing secure hardware building blocks. Students are expected to have basic knowledge of digital logic and Register-Transfer Level (RTL) design, but no specific background in security/cryptography is necessary. Contemporary issues, including recent research in hardware security, will be discussed. Graduate students in the course will be given extra homework problems and will have to complete additional work in the “project” component.

Course Objective
The course aims to equip students with a comprehensive understanding of hardware security principles, preparing them to address modern challenges and contribute to advancements in the field.

Requisites:
EE3954: Microprocessors and Microcontrollers
