Program questions
Before you
choose a program
Check how the learning works and what you’ll need.
Who are the programs for?
Students and graduates starting in chip design, junior engineers building their skills, and engineers moving into a new discipline. Choose a path based on what you already know.
Do I need to know VLSI already?
The digital design path starts with digital logic and basic electronics. Verification and physical design build on earlier knowledge. Open the path details to check the entry requirements.
How will I learn?
Work on a project and review it with a mentor. Ask us about the teaching format and group size for your chosen program.
What will I build?
A design or verification project that records your requirements, design choices, tests and findings. You’ll practice walking a mentor through the decisions behind it.
Where can I find fees and dates?
Ask us for the fees, schedule and entry requirements for your chosen path. We can also discuss weekly workload, attendance and certification before you enroll.
Can my team discuss a design project?
Outline your design or verification project in the inquiry form. Include the current stage, constraints and deliverables you need. Scope and availability must be agreed before work starts.
