Program Overview
'Integrated Circuit Design and Integrated System', the predecessor of 'Microelectronics Scienceand Engineering', was founded in 1958, which was one of the first ten engineering universities toestablish this major in China. It has undergone changes in the major names of 'Semiconductor Physicsand Devices', 'Microelectronics Technology', 'Electronic Science and Technology'.
In 2004,National Integrated Circuit Talents Training Base was approved. In 2006, 'Integrated Circuit Designand Integrated System' was approved as a national characteristic major. In 2011, Excellent EngineerProgram of Electronic Science and Technology was approved. In 2015, National DemonstrationSchool of Microelectronics was approved.
In 2019, Guangdong Demonstration Industry College wasapproved as the first batch. In 2021, the university was approved as the first batch of 'IntegratedCircuit Science and Engineering' doctoraldegree-granting institutions in China. At present, this majorhas developed a cultivate system including Bachelor-Master-Ph.D degree.
Inheriting the tradition of Professor Feng Bingquan's emphasis on teaching reform, the long-termexplorations of education and teaching reforms have been undertaken and the remarkable results wereachieved. The training of students is strongly supported by the industry.Presently, a lot of internshipbases with the leading enterprises have been set up, such as Huawei,ZTE, Haige Communications,Cansemi, AscenPower, Primarius, Empyrean, Smarter Micro, Anyka Microelectronics, Allwinner,JIELI Technology, GOWIN, CEPREI, etc.
