For VT undergraduates, MICS provides a one-week-long IC workshop, including "clean room visit", "AI chip", "Memory technology, memistor, and stt-mram", "FPGA design", and "CAD/EDA tool introduction".

Events

The first event of UPWARDS clean room visit was held on March 4th by Mr. Donald Leber. Students from the Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) departments were given an insightful walkthrough of the clean room facilities, including demonstrations of the equipment and training on its use.

On Mar. 19th, Dr.Yi and students in UPWARDS@VT gave an introduction of the coming IC workshop to the freshman. There will be 5 sections: "Artificial Intelligence Chips", "Clean Room Visit", "Memory, Memristor, STT-RAM", "Field Programmable Gate Array", and "Computer-Aided Design/ Electronic Design Automation Tools".
