Microelectronics with Automatic Control

The Microelectronics with Automatic Control course covers a wide range of topics in computer, electronic, input/output (I/O) programming, embedded systems, communications and networking for automation and control industries. The course aims to produce graduates with strong analytical and logical thinking skills as well as good hands-on skills.
 
The Microelectronics with Automatic Control course offered in the Microelectronics and Physics Division is well equipped with a wide range of software, hardware and networking facilities to enhance students’ learning.
 
The Advanced Diploma in Science cum BS Degree course aims to produce applied oriented microelectronic graduates majoring in Microelectronics with Automatic Control. The course is so designed that graduates are trained to the professional level, specialising in electronic systems design, integrated circuit (IC) design, embedded system design, digital signal processing, control system engineering and intelligent system control.
 
With the opportunity for students to go for six months industrial training, students will be exposed to real-life industrial problems, which will be both challenging and rewarding in terms of the invaluable experience that they will gain. Students are trained to improve their problem solving skills so that they would be able to blend into the workforce easily.

   Academic and Professional Progression

Graduates have been accepted into postgraduate studies in many universities.
 
The Advanced Diploma in Science (Microelectronics with Automatic Control) is recognised as suitable for progression to a Liverpool John Moores University (JMU), UK degree with prior credit. Advanced Diploma graduates of this programme can obtain the BEng (Hons) Microelectronics Engineering Degree from JMU by completing the final semester of the programme at the university.
 
   Career Prospects
 
The Advanced Diploma in Science cum BS Degree course is designed to meet the increasing employment demands and opportunities due to the rapid development of the microelectronic and semiconductor technology particularly in microelectronic design, development and manufacturing industries as well as industrial automation and control industries. Graduates can seek employment as microelectronic engineers, industrial control engineers, control system engineers etc.
