University of Hyderabad launches semiconductor, VLSI internship programmes
The University of Hyderabad's CASEST has launched two three-week internship programmes in VLSI Design and Semiconductor Fabrication. Sixty students are receiving hands-on training with advanced EDA tools and cleanroom facilities to prepare for careers in India's expanding semiconductor industry.
Hyderabad: The Centre for Advanced Studies in Electronics Science and Technology (CASEST), University of Hyderabad (UoH), has kicked off two intensive, three-week internship programmes running till July 21. Aimed at bridging the gap between classroom theory and industry reality, these programmes are training the next generation of tech pioneers in VLSI Design and Semiconductor Fabrication Techniques.
With 40 students diving into VLSI and 20 hands-on in the fabrication labs, these cohorts are gaining exclusive, practical experience with state-of-the-art Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools and cutting-edge cleanroom facilities.
The two specialized tracks offer an uncompromised, deep dive into the semiconductor lifecycle – VLSI Design, which is coordinated by Dr Anjali Priya, and Semiconductor Fabrication, coordinated by Dr S L D Varma.
Prof. Samrat L. Sabat, Head of CASEST, said, “Such initiatives are essential for developing a skilled workforce capable of contributing to India’s rapidly expanding semiconductor ecosystem.”
