Course Information

The objective of the master of science program in microelectronic engineering is to provide an opportunity for students to perform graduate-level research as they prepare for entry into the semiconductor industry or a doctorate program. The program requires strong Program outcomes The MS program in microelectronic engineering has a number of outcomes for its students: Understand the fundamental scientific principles governing solid-state devices and their incorporation into modern integrated circuits; Understand the relevance of a process or device, either proposed or existing, to current manufacturing practices; Develop in-depth knowledge in existing or emerging areas of the field of microelectronics, such as device engineering, circuit design, lithography, materials and processes, and yield and manufacturing; Apply microelectronic processing techniques to the creation/investigation of new process/device structures; and Communicate technical material effectively through oral presentations, written reports, and publications..
