IISc, In Partnership With Lam Research, Successfully Concludes Pilot To Upskill Engineers In Semiconductor Fabrication Technology

2024-06-27

The Indian Institute of Science (IISc) has successfully concluded a pilot program to upskill engineers in semiconductor fabrication technology, in partnership with Lam Research. Launched during Prime Minister Narendra Modi's state visit to Washington D.C. in July 2023, the program trained 32 MTech and PhD students using Lam's Semiverse Solutionsat IISc's Center for Nano Science and Engineering (CeNSE). Three students have secured placements at leading global semiconductor companies.

Following this success, IISc and Lam Research have signed an MoU with the India Semiconductor Mission to scale the program nationally, aiming to upskill 60,000 engineers over the next decade. The training included the use of SEMulator3D®, a 3D semiconductor process modeling software, enabling students to conduct virtual experiments at lower costs and with reduced environmental impact. Lam Research India, a longtime partner of CeNSE, continues to collaborate on advancing semiconductor technologies.
