Each module has a core one-week residential period at a university with experts in the subject area. MSc delegates are required to take eight modules from a choice of 16 subject areas, such as Devices and Process Integration, Lithography, Ion Implantation, and Metallisation. Applicants will normally register at the university closest to their place of work, which will also be responsible for their industrial project and award their qualification. Besides the MSc there are shorter programmes for the awards of Postgraduate Diploma and Postgraduate Certificate. Engineers may also undertake individual modules.
Delegates can enrol on the programme immediately.
Module 1 'Device and Process Integration for Silicon ICs' will be delivered by The University of Edinburgh and will commence on 6 March 2000.
