Interdisciplinary Master of Science in Engineering, Major in Microelectronics and Semiconductors

INTERDISCIPLINARY MASTER OF SCIENCE IN ENGINEERING, MAJOR IN MICROELECTRONICS AND SEMICONDUCTORS
Meet the Global Demand for Semiconductor & Microelectronics Engineers Semiconductor chips form the backbone of the entire computing and electronic industry. Anything that plugs into a wall outlet requires at least one–if not many–semiconductor chips. As global demand for semiconductor chips and integrated circuits increases, engineering expertise in semiconductors and microelectronics will become an even more valuable credential. The semiconductor industry is expected to add 70,000 new jobs by 2026, and federal investments in semiconductors are growing substantially. 
Purdue’s Interdisciplinary Master of Science in Engineering, with a major in Microelectronics and Semiconductors prepares professionals to become leaders in the microelectronics field and will help meet the growing demand for semiconductor engineers. Our program is the only degree focused entirely on semiconductors and microelectronics offered at an engineering college ranked in the top 10 nationally. Offered via online or hybrid modalities, this Master’s program is convenient to working professionals and gives students practical, focused training that can be immediately applied to the workforce. 
The major Microelectronics and Semiconductors will prepare you to: 

• Demonstrate expertise in a subfield of study chosen from the fields of semiconductors and microelectronics; 
• Identify and formulate advanced problems and apply knowledge of mathematics and science to solve those problems;
• Utilize current knowledge, technology, or techniques within their chosen subfield.
