Semiconductors: New Technologies and the Value Chain

University of Cambridge Online (course link)

Semiconductors sit at the heart of today’s most transformative technologies – from artificial intelligence (AI) and renewable energy to autonomous vehicles and the Internet of Things. As the sector evolves rapidly, there is a growing demand for professionals who can combine technical expertise with a cross-disciplinary view of the entire value chain. This six-week online course from the University of Cambridge is designed for professionals who want to bridge that gap.

You will explore semiconductor materials and their properties, learn how circuits are designed and created, and gain hands-on experience with industry-standard design tools. You will also study integrated circuit design and assembly, testing and packaging (ATP), while considering the commercial and geopolitical trends shaping global manufacturing.

Key topics covered in the course include an introduction to the semiconductor sector and its global context, an exploration of semiconductor materials and their properties, and the process of creating circuits from those materials. Learners will also develop knowledge of integrated circuit design and ATP, while examining future directions and innovations that are set to shape the industry.
