Indian Institute of Science (IISc) and TalentSprint, a global edtech company is further strengthening their two-year-old partnership by announcing a Post Graduate level advanced certification programme in ‘Micro and Nanoelectronics’. The course will help next generation of semiconductor professionals to empower knowledge and take advantage of industry growth experienced in the semiconductor sector.

India, in next ten years will witness 70 per cent growth in the semiconductor market, driven by automotive, data storage, and wireless industries. The semiconductor market is projected to be a trillion-dollar industry by 2030 with a current value of over 500B$. The PG certification programme is thoughtfully crafted to meet the growing demand of semiconductor and VLSI (very large scale integration) professionals. The well-researched curriculum has been designed by MSDLab, Department of Electronics Systems Engineering (DESE), IISc Bangalore. It includes industry-oriented training from the world-renowned Semiconductor and Nanoelectronics expert.

Prof Mayank Shrivastava, Programme Director, Indian Institute of Science (IISc), told, “The field of Micro and Nanoelectronics is the enabler of next-generation semiconductor technologies which is the heart of today’s faster, sleeker, light weight and energy efficient systems. This is also the backbone of upcoming neuromorphic and quantum technologies. Keeping the immense potential of this ever-growing field in mind, this is the right time for professionals to gain a deep insight into designing, modeling, characterising, and developing semiconductor technology.”

Prof Shrivastava is leading the programme instructors’ team and is having around 50 patents, around 25 national and international awards and 200 research publications to his credit. The team consists of leading researchers and experts who come with a vast industry experience and collaborating with over five leading semiconductor industries at any point in time.

Dr Santanu Paul, CEO and Managing Director of TalentSprint, said, “IISc has established state-of-the-art laboratories for Nanoelectronics research. We are confident that this programme under the guidance and mentorship of renowned IISc faculty will create outliers for the semiconductor industry.”
