Integrated Circuit Layout Design – Certificate
graduates of the integrated Circuit layout Design program are employed by firms who design and manufacture the
subminiature electronic circuits that are at the nucleus of all electronic and computerized equipment. integrated circuit
designers use computer-aided-design systems to design the templates or masks that are used to manufacture
microelectronic circuits. graduates of this program may also be employed as electronic circuit board designers and
layout specialists.
learn basic drafting and design fundamentals using computer aided drafting (CaD) tools. Complete this program by
taking classes in a combination of weekdays and evenings/weekends.
What can I do with this certificate?
