TUD Rector Prof. Ursula Staudinger and Minister of Science Sebastian Gemkow send off first students to Taiwan as part of the Semiconductor Talent Incubation Program
Less than six months after
the signing of a cooperation agreement between the Free State of Saxony, the Technical University of Dresden (TUD) and the semiconductor company TSMC in Taiwan, the first students from Saxony are embarking on a six-month study visit to Taiwan as part of the innovative
"Semiconductor Talent Incubation Program" (STIPT). In STIPT, the Free State of Saxony, TUD and TSMC are working closely together to prepare STEM students as specialists for challenging tasks in the semiconductor industry. As part of their studies, the students complete a semester of semiconductor teaching at the National Taiwan University (Taipei), combined with practical training at the Newcomer Training Center & Fab at TSMC (Taichung).
