A UC Davis team, led by former CITRIS UC Davis director Saif Islam is joining the Pacific Intermountain Network for Education in Semiconductors, a regional node of the National Network for Microelectronics Education (NNME). 

The NNME Pacific Intermountain Network for Education in Semiconductors creates talent pipelines for the semiconductor workforce by bringing together universities, community colleges, K-12 partners, corporations and government organizations across Idaho, Montana, Washington, Oregon, California, Colorado, Utah, Nevada and Hawaii. 

The team at UC Davis will expand and update the college’s undergraduate curriculum in integrated circuit fabrication and help develop new graduate-level courses on microelectronic chip design, tape-out and testing.
