ADVANCING INNOVATIONS IN ELECTRONICS & PHOTONICS
As a leading knowledge institution of the semiconductors and photonics industry in the Netherlands, TU/e actively seeks to attract international talents to Eindhoven and the Brainport region. Since 2023, TU/e has spearheaded the organization of summer school on Semiconductors and Photonics, together with academic and industrial partners. This marks our second summer school, with the exciting addition this year of hosting international students from all over the world.
The Eindhoven Semicon Summer School (ESSS) will host 60 students and provide 16 lectures from industry and academia. Students will also participate in challenging projects, collaborate closely with the companies from the region, further enriching the learning experience while fostering new collaborations and exchanges.
Upon completion of the Eindhoven Semicon Summer School, an international network within the field of semiconductors & photonics will be in your reach and you will have direct access to a range of opportunities in both research (PhD) and industry.
The Eindhoven Semicon Summer School is an important initiative under the Flagship Future Chips at TU/e and the industrial ecosystem of Brainport Eindhoven.
