在这里学什么？

Semiconductor and photonic devices impact virtually every aspect of human life, from communication, entertainment, and transportation, to health, solid-state lighting, and solar cells. There is an ever increasing need for talented engineers that not only understand the design of these amazing devices but can direct and optimize their fabrication. Microelectronic engineering is at the leading edge of science education. Integrated microelectronic or nano-electronic circuits and sensors drive our global economy, increase our productivity, and help improve our quality of life. RIT’s microelectronic engineering program is the only accredited bachelor of science degree of its kind in the U.S. and is considered a world leader in the education of semiconductor process engineers.

Students in the microelectronic engineering program are required to complete two semesters and two summers of cooperative education, beginning after their second year of study. Students find co-op employment at many of the major integrated circuits manufacturers across the United States. Upon graduation, students are well prepared to enter industry or pursue graduate school. This major also prepares students to work in emerging technologies such as nanotechnology, micro electromechanical systems, photonics, photo voltaics, and micro systems.

With the worldwide semiconductor industry growing at an astounding pace, RIT graduates are a valuable resource to the industry. This major offers students an unparalleled opportunity to prepare for professional challenges and success in one of the leading modern areas of engineering. Faculty committed to quality engineering educations, state-of-the-art laboratories, strong industrial support, co-op opportunities with national companies, and smaller class sizes make this one of the most value-added programs in the nation.

The educational objectives of the microelectronic engineering major are to produce graduates who have the following skills or characteristics:

• Sound knowledge of the fundamental scientific principles involved in the operation, design, and fabrication of integrated circuits.
• A comprehensive understanding of relevant technologies such as integrated circuit process integration and manufacturing. This includes nanolithography and the application of engineering principles to the design and development of current and future semiconductor technologies.
• A professional approach to problem-solving, using analytical, academic, and communication skills effectively, with special emphasis on working in teams.
• An enthusiasm for learning and the continuous improvement of skills throughout one’s career, exemplified by learning about emerging technologies and adapting to and accepting change within the field.
• A desire to achieve leadership positions in industry or academia.
• A breadth of knowledge, including the multidisciplinary nature of microelectronic engineering as well as the broad social, ethical, safety, and environmental issues within which engineering is practiced.

The curriculum begins with introductory courses in microelectronic engineering and nanolithography (nano-patterning) for integrated circuits. The first two years build a solid foundation in mathematics, physics, and chemistry. The fundamentals of statistics and their applications in the design of experiments, semiconductor device physics and operation, and integrated circuit technology are covered in the second year. This prepares students for their first cooperative education experience. The third year comprises the electrical engineering course work necessary for understanding semiconductor devices and integrated circuits. The fourth and fifth years are dedicated to optics, nanolithography systems and materials, semiconductor processing, professional electives, and a two-course capstone senior project.
