The Master's programme in Design and Test for Integrated Circuits at Chemnitz University of Technology provides training in designing, manufacturing, and testing integrated circuits. Initial theory courses establish the foundations before the curriculum progresses to more practice-oriented work. All teaching is conducted by researchers active in the field. The compulsory modules (37 CP) cover Design of Digital Systems, Design of Heterogeneous Systems, Test of Digital and Mixed-Signal Circuits, Elements of Integrated Circuits, Technologies for Micro and Nano Systems, Integrated Circuit Design at the transistor level, and Reliability of Micro and Nano Systems. Students then select elective modules to reach 53 CP from three specialisation fields: Test and Reliability, Design and Technology, and Application of Integrated Circuits. At least one practice-oriented module is required. The programme concludes with a 30-CP master's thesis in the final semester. It runs over 4 semesters with intake in both the winter and summer semester, and carries no tuition fees. The degree is offered at Chemnitz University of Technology in Chemnitz, Germany.
