The ‘University of Macau and University of Electronic Science and Technology of China Joint Summer Camp’ was held at the University of Macau (UM) with the participation of 26 outstanding undergraduate students from the School of Integrated Circuit Science and Engineering of the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC). The aim of the summer camp was to enable students who are interested in integrated circuit design and wish to pursue further studies in the field to gain an in-depth understanding of analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits and UM’s learning and research environment.
The summer camp was jointly organised by UM, Zhuhai UM Science & Technology Research Institute, and UESTC. Rui Martins, vice rector of UM and director of the Institute of Microelectronics (IME), shared with the participating students the development of the State Key Laboratory of Analog and Mixed-Signal VLSI (SKL-AMSV) and his personal experience, which led to vibrant discussions and questions from the students. He also encouraged the students to continue their efforts in the field of microelectronics research.
To give the participating students a more comprehensive understanding of the latest developments in analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits, several professors from IME and SKL-AMSV presented the latest research developments and focuses in their respective research fields. In addition, the summer camp offered courses on classic analog integrated circuits, such as data converters and power management integrated circuits, to enable the students to perform real circuit simulations, complete basic integrated circuit design, and experience the chip design process.
At the closing ceremony, Sin Sai Weng, deputy director of IME, presented certificates of completion to the students and praised their enthusiasm for learning. Guo Li, a lecturer of UESTC, expressed hope that the friendship between the two universities will be long-lasting and that there will be more exchanges and cooperation in the future.
