Microelectronics Engineer

Early electronic circuits were relatively basic. A few tubes, resistors, transformers, capacitors, and wires made up their composition. As designers gained more knowledge, they started to make circuits bigger and more sophisticated. As this technology advanced, component limits were quickly found. Vacuum tubes were quickly replaced by solid-state electronics. As novel varieties of transistors and diodes were developed, circuits were modified to use them. The size, weight, and power use reductions were noteworthy. Today's microelectronic technology comprises integrated circuits, hybrids, thick film, thin film, and mixtures of these. Such circuits are used in LINEAR (analog), DIGITAL, and SWITCHING circuits. In light of the present trend of generating several circuits on a single chip, expect additional gains in electronic circuit packaging density. In the meantime, you may anticipate a reduction in the size, weight, and number of connections in particular systems. Improvements in reliability and system capability are also to be expected

In this context, our microelectronics graduates will be the architects of microelectronic components and systems that will use future nanotechnologies with chips integrating several billion transistors.

The joint program with our social and economic partners will give the possibility to our students to carry out two funded internships of 15 days which are carried out alternately with the training. This program will eventually provide the necessary experience in their field of study.

The internships will also make it possible to develop a significant network of contacts and to facilitate the search for employment at the end of their studies. In addition, the student will end his journey by carrying out a large-scale project that can lead to engineering competitions at the national and international levels. This means that the training is almost entirely practical (in the case of more than half of the courses offered).
