The paper details how state-of-the-art technologies like multimedia, computer modeling and simulation may be applied with profit for education in microelectronics. It presents a set of multimedia courses on material characterization of VLSI wafers with different techniques. The major interest of the courses is the protocol simulator available for each technique. Such a simulator aims at giving the user a good look and feel of the real and complex experimental setup by allowing him to perform actions on its simulated model, according to the real protocol of use. Thanks to an appropriate design methodology, it is pretty easy to adapt the protocol simulator engine to any industrial or academic specific setup and to couple it with other simulators (like spectrum simulator), thus providing virtual instrumentation on surface analysis.

A modern microelectronic systems undergraduate program which incorporates electronic design automation software throughout the curriculum faces many challenges at an urban non-residential campus. This paper describes both the challenges facing small non-residential departments offering microelectronic systems education and the approach used at the University of Colorado at Denver to begin to overcome these challenges.

PLDs are very complex devices that can be described using a lot of different non-excluding but related concepts. Usually, PLD education is based on the analysis of specific devices of several manufacturers, but this method is nor suitable because it gives only a particular insight. This situation demands a new methodology that summarizes all the characteristics of PLDs and makes possible a dynamic link between related concepts. From this perspective this paper describes an original method of PLD characterization and proposes a hypermedia application as a suitable solution for its practical implementation.

This paper describes the restructuring of VLSI education at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH). Changing needs of industry, advances in technology and design methodology has required a significant reorganization of VLSI education with combined emphasis on system issues and associated physical constraints. We present here a course structure which will address, in parallel fashion, the key design issues for future system products.

This paper describes the integration of project based education and the design of mixed signal integrated circuits and systems at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI). The flexibility of WPI's Projects Program allows a variety of undergraduate educational opportunities, including industry sponsored projects (both on campus and overseas) as well as interdisciplinary work involving collaboration with researchers in other fields.

This paper presents a French public programme set up in order to assist small and medium-sized industries that are willing to implement ASICs or new electronic technologies in their products. After the presentation of the general frame of this programme, the specific actions will be detailed: SMIs awareness to new technologies, and specialised training sessions in microelectronics that were defined and realised for SMIs. We will then give quantitative results of the action and the characteristics of the SMIs that were provided help via JESSICA. Thanks to the positive results obtained by the programme over the last five years, JESSICA is likely to continue its action for a new period of four years.

Two major programs aiming at supporting academic education and technology transfer to SMEs in the field of microelectronics were launched in mid-95 by the Commission of the European Communities (EC). The EUROPRACTICE program provides basic services including silicon foundries, training and access to MCMs, microsystems and CAD software, while the FUSE program encourages companies to use a microelectronic technology for the first time in their product.
