Abstract :
The process from the conception of a new device-or when a new need is detected-to putting a new electronic product on the market is shown in several places. The development stages for an electronic product can be diverse: design, manufacturing, test, and many hours of engineering. However, are the different development stages of a project or an electronic product included in the teaching programs of our universities? In this paper, several proposals regarding the development stages of a project and their relationship with the curriculum in some countries are analyzed.
