Summer School: Fascinating Electronics for a Cool World

20 - 25 Aug 2023

Summer SchoolAENEAS, EPoSS, and Inside Industry Associations have joined forces to launch a new Summer School programme targeting students who have been enrolled for at least two years of undergraduate studies and have at least one more year to go. The first edition of ‘Fascinating Electronics for a Cool World‘ will be held in Bertinoro, Italy, close to Bologna, 20 to 25 August 2023. The event aims at inspiring and attracting new talents in the European Electronics Components and Systems community.

Facing the problem of the lack of necessary skills, which is now signalled by more than three quarters of EU companies[1], and meeting the Europe’s Digital targets, in the context of European Year of Skills 2023, the European Commission is encouraging strong engagement of young people, therefore providing an opportunity to get quality jobs and contribute to Europe’s digital transition and sustainable growth.
Answering this need of stepping up and advancing skills development in the Electronic Components and Systems sector, AENEAS, EPoSS, and Inside industry associations want to introduce to selected students some of the possibilities offered by present microelectronic devices and foreseen future applications, showing the fascinating world of microelectronics in various fields such as sensor interfaces, power devices, radio-frequencies and digital.

PROGRAMME

Via lectures, demonstrations and interactive activities, the programme will introduce some of the possibilities offered by present microelectronics devices and foreseen future applications, showing the many facets of the fascinating world of microelectronics.
The programme will be soon available here.

ELIGIBLE STUDENTS

The five-days Summer School is entirely free for the selected students including lodging and food. Travel costs to the location of the summer school will be reimbursed based on receipts up to a total amount of 500 Euros per student.

It is dedicated to students who have been enrolled for at least two years of undergraduate studies and have at least one more year to go. Students from all fields of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) in a university based in the EU or associated country are eligible to apply. Good knowledge of English is mandatory since all interactions will be held in that language.
