Aanbieding 1 met studiegidsnummer 4015676ENR voor alle studenten in het 2e semester met een verdiepend master niveau.
Technological (r)evolutions in (micro)electronic systems and markets
Micro-and OptoElectronic Devices
Photonic Devices
Manufacturing technologies for Micro-Electronic and Photonic Devices
Core applications of micro-electronics and photonics
In this course a few general aspects of the broad domain of electronics, ICT and photonics will be lectured. About 60% of the course deals with these general aspects. The remaining part of the course focuses on more specialized topics. From these several specialised topics the student will be invited to select a topic to work out a project assignment in detail in a group of 4 to 6 students. Technical as well as commercials and business wise aspects will be treated during the oral presentation of this study.
Teaching Methods
This description of the teaching methods is indicative, in order to assess the expected study load.
Lectures:
21h (7x3h) of lectures given by the course titular
15h (5x3h) consisting of the lectures given by the students.
SELF : 60h of work time: researching the topic, preparing and practicing the presentations, writing the assignment.
Students acquire insights in the technical and technological background in the broad domain of electronics, ICT and photonics. The acquired background knowledge allows the students to function as professionally as a non-electronic/photonic specialist in companies in the field of electronics and photonics.
