Packaging Education Workshop

Date/Time: Dec 8, 1:10pm - 2:25pm

 

Venue: Veranda III

 

Chairs: Prof Jeff Suhling and Prof Andrew Tay

 

Objective:

Electronics packaging is a wide-ranging, multi-disciplinary field. This is evidenced by the following list of Technical Committees associated with the Electronics Packaging Society: Materials & Processes; High Density Substrates & Boards; Electrical Design, Modeling & Simulation; Thermal & Mechanical; Emerging Technology; Nanotechnology; Power & Energy; RF & Thz Technologies; Photonics; 3D/TSV; Reliability; Test. With such a wide-ranging field, universities all over the world are facing a real challenge in designing an education program to prepare their graduates for this industry. Indeed, many universities don’t even try and simply stick to imparting the fundamentals of science and engineering to their students, leaving companies to provide further specialized training after they are employed by the companies. On the other hand, many companies would like universities to at least teach some specialization modules in electronics packaging. The main objective of this Workshop is to discover what some universities in Asia are doing in preparing their students to enter this industry. Much of electronics packaging is carried out in Asia. Are there any specialization programs on electronics packaging in Asian universities? What is the rationale behind them? How different are they from those in America and Europe?
