Master's degree in Semiconductor Engineering and Microelectronic Design

Barcelona School of Telecommunications Engineering (ETSETB)

The master's degree in Semiconductor Engineering and Microelectronic Design (master's degree web) aims to provide advanced and specialised scientific and technological training in the design and manufacture of integrated, digital and analogue circuits, with an emphasis on applying them in memory systems, communication systems, control systems, computing systems, sensors and emerging devices, such as 2D and quantum devices.

The aim is thus to cover the current shortage of professionals who have this kind of training, which is highly valued in industry at the Spanish and European levels and in research into semiconductor technologies. The master's degree offers comprehensive training that combines the resources and academic excellence of participating universities, which have years of experience in education and research in semiconductor engineering and microelectronic design, and the participation of the Spanish National Research Council’s IMB-CNM, the leading centre in microelectronic technologies.

It is an interuniversity master's degree coordinated by the UPC, with the participation of the Universitat de Barcelona (UB), the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) and the Universitat Rovira i Virgili (URV), and the strategic collaboration of the Institute of Microelectronics of Barcelona (IMB-CNM) of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC).
