Title
Addressing Emerging Needs of Hi-Tech Industry: Collaborative Engineering Program in Electronic Testing, Instrumentation and Measurement
Abstract
IEEE Region 10 is home to some of the world's largest semiconductor design and manufacturing facilities. Electronic testing is a branch of a wide instrumentation and measurement field. It plays a key role in verifying and improving quality and functionality of the fabricated integrated circuits as well as in refining the manufacturing process so to reach a required high yield. However, the continuing shortage of qualified engineers in the test, failure analysis, instrumentation and measurement areas in the electronic industry and associated R&D organizations, makes it hard to cover the required production operations. Addressing the need, an integrated specialist education program in the Electronic Test Technology was developed and implemented by a team of university academics in cooperation and with support from management and engineering specialists of several leading electronic companies. The program was also sponsored by the IEEE Instrumentation and Measurement Society Faculty Course Development Award. The paper presents the summary of the developed contents of the teaching and training components. It also outlines the designed laboratory systems, and provides the feedback received from the students and industry.
