Microelectronics packaging curriculum development at San Jose State University

Abstract
This paper describes the development of an engineering education curriculum in microelectronic packaging at both the undergraduate and graduate levels, at the College of Engineering, San Jose State University. Motivation for establishing courses to support such a curriculum and the needs of the local electronics industry are discussed. The undergraduate courses are taught in the lecture/laboratory mode, thus requiring students to conduct experiments. The interdisciplinary graduate curriculum is offered as an area of specialization within the Master of Science in Engineering program. Guest speakers from industry are invited to discuss advances and challenges present in this constantly evolving field. The College also offers short courses for engineers practicing in industry. With NSF funding, workshops for skills enhancement of university faculty are currently in the planning stage; four such workshops will be offered during 1997-1998.
