Student Looking to Enter the Semiconductor Industry
Hi everyone,
I'm a Materials Science master's student finishing my thesis in about three months, and I'm hoping to start a career in the semiconductor industry.
I have hands-on experience with characterisation techniques such as SEM, XRD, EDX/EDS, and confocal microscopy, along with a solid theoretical background in materials science.
How transferable are these skills to semiconductor roles? Are there any additional techniques, software, or fundamentals (e.g., semiconductor physics, thin films, lithography, cleanroom processes) that I should learn before applying?
I'd appreciate any advice from people working in the industry. Thanks!
