This is an interuniversity Master's degree that offers a comprehensive education by combining the resources and academic excellence of the four participating universities (UAB, UPC, UB and URV), with years of experience in training and research in semiconductor engineering and microelectronic design, and with the strategic participation of the Barcelona Microelectronics Institute at the the National Microelectronics Centre (IMB-CNM) belonging to CSIC, a leading centre in microelectronic technology. The Master's degree is coordinated by the Barcelona School of Telecommunications Engineering at the UPC.
Semiconductor and microelectronics technology is a fundamental cornerstone in of today's world, as it is the basis for electronic devices that make communication, computing, medicine and many other aspects of today's society possible. In view of the growing demand for highly qualified professionals in this field, this master's degree has been designed to provide you with the skills and knowledge necessary to face the technological challenges of the future.
The programme covers a wide range of subjects and offers two specialisations. The Semiconductor Engineering specialisation trains students in the use of microelectronic chip technology in different areas, such as clean room manufacturing, encapsulation, characterisation and reliability, and emerging technologies. The Microelectronic Design specialisation aims to provide training in the design of digital and analogue microelectronic circuits and systems integrated into advanced technology. Training in semiconductor and microelectronics manufacturing and design in a single Master's degree is one of the distinguishing features of the programme.
You will have access to laboratories equipped with state-of-the-art technology and will be able to participate in innovative research projects at each of the universities. One of these laboratories is the Integrated Micro and Nanofabrication Clean Room at IMB-CNM, a unique scientific and technical facility (ICTS) of 1,500 square metres located on the UAB campus. This will provide you with a unique opportunity to enter the world of microelectronic technologies from a more practical and applied perspective.
In addition, the programme offers you opportunities for professional work placements in technological companies to boost your employability and at the same time meet the growing demand in the microelectronics industry.

More programs from the university

The UAB offers more than Bachelor's Degrees, covering all fields of knowledge. Our bachelor's degrees are known for their quality and international character, as well as for the amount of practical experience students acquire.

UAB bachelor's degrees provide students with a large amount of practical experience, helping them to be better prepared as they enter the professional world.

Some bachelor's degrees are offered fully in English, and many other degrees offer subjects in English.

The UAB Barcelona Summer School offers a wide array of subjects in several fields and takes place from the end of June to the beginning of August. Most of the courses are taught in English, with an option to learn and improve your Spanish as a Foreign Language. Depending on the regulations of each home university, especially if there is a mobility agreement with the UAB, students will be able to transfer the credits earned during their stay to their current degree.

The Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) is a public university offering:

More than 500 programmes which include:

  • Universitary Master's Degrees, which provide you with advanced interdisciplinary training and are divided into programmes offering practical training for employment and others specialising in initiation to research. Our official master's degrees are valid in all of Spain and equivalent to the master's degrees programmes in Europe. The research-oriented programmes give access to PhD programmes.

  • UAB Master's Degrees and Graduate Diplomas. The aim of these programmes is to provide students with an advanced-level, specialised, multidisciplinary education oriented towards professional specialisation. In order to guarantee their academic rigour, they are subject to similar quality control processes to those used for official programmes taught at the UAB. Professors, professionals and external institutions take part in graduate teaching to make sure that courses offer the practical approach that the labour market demands.

 
Almost 90  PhD programmes in 5 areas of knowledge: Arts and Humanities, Health Sciencies, Sciencies, Social Sciencies and Law and Technological Sciencies.

The aim of these programmes is providing advanced training in research techniques, culminating in a doctoral thesis. They involve preparing and defending a thesis and usually last four years, with the aim of producing top-level academic and professionals.

Some of the UAB’s PhD programmes have received an Excellence Award. The European Doctoral Research Component includes stays in different European countries and the participation of lecturers from foreign universities.

Approximately 30-40% of students come from other countries in both master's degrees and graduate diplomas, as well as PhD programmes.
