M.Tech. Microelectronics is a four semester Work Integrated Learning Programme designed to provide electronics engineers with the highly specialised knowledge and experience that they need to design, fabricate and test devices, circuits and systems at micro and Nano scale. The programme is of four semesters, with online classes conducted mostly on weekends or after-business hours. The programme offers a set of courses that allow students to gain expertise in areas that include back-end and front-end microelectronics such as Processor & SoC Design, Chip Design, VLSI CAD Tool Development and Semiconductor Fabrication. Participants will be able to use Remote Labs, that provide remote access to hardware and software tools that are used for designing and testing embedded systems on various platforms such as MultiCore STM32, Raspberry Pi, Ardunio, Xilinix FPGA. Semesters 1st, 2nd, and 3rd cover four courses each. The 4th semester covers Dissertation/ Project Work.The Dissertation (Project Work) in the final semester enables students to apply concepts and techniques learnt during the programme. The programme uses a Continuous Evaluation System that assesses the learners over convenient and regular intervals. Such a system provides timely and frequent feedback and helps busy working professionals stay on course with the programme. The education delivery methodology is a blend of classroom and experiential learning. Experiential learning consists of lab exercises, assignments, case studies and work integrated activities
