Semiconductors are everywhere – from the processor and AI chips in our smartphones to electronic devices for electric and autonomous vehicles, to new sensors for healthcare.

The MSc in Semiconductor Technology and Applications is an exciting course covering all aspects of semiconductor materials and technologies from silicon to compound semiconductors, to next generation semiconductors (plastic electronics and 2D materials). Students will learn how to design and fabricate semiconductor devices and how these technologies are used in applications including communications, AI, automotive, photonics, intelligent sensing and more.

The semiconductor revolution will create thousands of new jobs over the next 5 years and many more in the decades to come. The MSc in “Semiconductor Technology and Applications” will prepare Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Computer Science and Engineering students, for careers in semiconductor and related industries but will also equip students with the transferable skills for many other sectors. The course will also be available online to industry-based employees.
