Intensive lab work of
IC Design
In this intensive IC design program, we will condense an entire semester's worth of lab work and learning into a focused 1-week experience. Participants will engage in high-impact, hands-on sessions that cover the core principles of IC design. Each day will be packed with rigorous lab work, where students will apply theoretical knowledge directly to real-world design challenges. This accelerated format ensures that participants gain deep practical experience within a short timeframe, pushing them to refine their skills, troubleshoot design issues, and optimize their circuits with precision.
TSRI Expert Course
The Taiwan Semiconductor Research Institute (TSRI) offers a comprehensive 6 half-day lecture series that combines theoretical knowledge with hands-on practice. Participants will explore cutting-edge research topics and gain practical experience through lab sessions that reinforce the concepts covered in each lecture. With expert guidance and access to state-of-the-art facilities, the TSRI Lab Course provides a valuable opportunity for students to deepen their expertise and expand their research skills in semiconductor technology.
Institute Visit - TSMC Museum of Innovation
The TSMC Museum of Innovation encompasses three exhibition galleries: "A World of Innovation", "Unleashing Innovation", and "Dr. Morris Chang, TSMC Founder". Through interactive technology, digital content, and historical documents we will learn about the pervasiveness of ICs in our daily lives and about their continued advancement. In addition, we will learn how ICs are making our lives more fulfilling and how they are driving technology beyond our imagination. We will also learn how TSMC contributes to global IC innovation and to Taiwan's economy.
