Introduction
Microelectronics is a cornerstone of the Information Age. It is concerned with studies in integrated electronic/photonic circuits, system architectures, and design automation. It integrates novel electronic and photonic devices into circuits; architects computing, networking, and sensing systems; and automates their design and optimization.
The Master of Philosophy (MPhil) Program in Microelectronics aims to provide rigorous training in the fundamental theories, key technologies, and industrial practices of microelectronics. Students will be trained to investigate novel electronic and photonic devices for analog and digital circuits; explore advanced architecture for post-Moore's Law computing, networking, and sensing systems; and create intelligent design automation tools and methodologies. The program will also offer modern pedagogical training to prepare research students with specialized and transferrable skills in post-Moore's Law integrated circuits and systems that serve the industries.
A candidate for an MPhil degree is expected to demonstrate knowledge in microelectronics research, synthesize and create new knowledge, and contribute to microelectronics technologies.
