Noticeably absent from the curriculum is anything to do with gate-level electronic design, which makes up a vast percentage of the bulk of 2021 electronics.

I sometimes wonder how much of the practical and theoretical know-home related to designing modern cutting-edge silicon is actually buried in the brains of private sector workers and how much of it makes it back to academia.
