VLSI Club
Central Institute of Technology Kokrajhar, BTR, Assam, INDIA
Purpose
The club is aimed at up-skilling the knowledge base related to domain of VLSI Chip Design with the help of several activities such as invited talks, webinars, demo sessions, problem solving, workshops, hands-on sessions etc, in collaboration with the several industries and pioneering institutes and bodies to facilitate the maximum exposure to the happenings around. This way we make ourselves aligned to the vision of our country "India Semiconductor Mission".

Plan of Activities
Having covered the basics of semiconductor fab processes, followed by the opportunities in the semiconductor market for the aspirants and the skills required for each job, we are now slowly entering into the IC design for electronic systems. Several dots needs to be connected before a successful chip is made, where each dot represents an abstraction layer spanning over design phase to post silicon phase. We are now into building strong value chain for the future engineers representing the India's semiconductor mission.
