Master's in Electronic Engineering - Microelectronics

The University of Pavia stands as one of the world's oldest academic institutions, known for its strong emphasis on research and academic excellence. The university offers a wide range of undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral programs across various disciplines, including humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, engineering, and medicine. With a strong commitment to providing students with a comprehensive and intellectually stimulating learning environment, the University of Pavia continues to uphold its reputation as a leading institution for higher education. The University of Pavia's academic community is characterized by its distinguished faculty, innovative research initiatives, and state-of-the-art facilities. Students benefit from a dynamic educational experience that combines rigorous academic training with practical skills development, preparing them for successful careers in their chosen fields. The university's vibrant campus life, historical heritage, and strong ties to the local community contribute to a well-rounded and enriching academic journey for students from all walks of life.

The program provides high-level education to graduate students with a bachelor in electronics, communications and other scientific disciplines. Besides traditional courses, the syllabus includes other industry-oriented courses and opportunities for exposure to most recent advances in three different tracks: Microelectronics. The two-year program in Microelectronics is intended to offer a challenging high-level education and a stimulating research environment to talented students who hold a Bachelor degree in technology or science of substantial quality and level. The proposed program leverages a rather unique peculiarity of Pavia: the town houses several designs and research centers of international semiconductor companies that tightly collaborate with the University to train students of high profile. Most companies host students for their graduation projects and participate, in co-operation with the University, in national and European research programs. STMicroelectronics supports a Laboratory housed inside the campus. Engineers who graduated from Laurea Magistralis are nowadays employees of the most important international semiconductor companies in Italy and abroad: Austriamicrosystems, Broadcom, Conexant, Elpida Memory, Huawei, International Rectifier, Marvell, Maxim, MaxLinear, Micron, National Semiconductor, Qualcomm, STMicroelectronics. The Master’s Program in Microelectronics provides graduate students with the cutting-edge knowledge and research skills needed for employment in the microelectronics industry.
