Electronics
Industry has grown rapidly in recent
years. |
| |
|
The main
impetus for rapid and phenomenal growth
of Electronic Industry is the intrinsic
pervasiveness of electronic products
and continued technological breakthroughs
in the field of Microelectronics and
associated disciplines. |
| |
|
VLSI
circuits, consisting of millions of
transistors working together are used
in applications as varied as personal
computers, multimedia, mobile communications,
organ transplants, microsurgery, de-coding
of human genome etc. Indisputably VLSI
is the core technology that has been
at the foundation of all progress during
the twentieth century. |
| |
|
The concept
of ‘‘Systems-on-a-Chip''
is no longer a dream, but a reality. |
| |
|
A Nation,
should not lag behind other nations
in the frontier area of technological
knowledge, more so in VLSI which is
essential for making the nation a Technological
giant. |
| |
|
Our country
needs the capability to design its
own chips and also to fabricate them
in order to meet the global challenges
in the new millennium. |
| |
|
Like
Silicon valley we have to set our goals
to make cyber valley a one stop destination
for chip designing though not for fabrication
which is capital intensive. |
| |
|
Hence
the need for Industry based M.S program
in the niche area of VLSI Engineering |
