IEEE EDS SUMMER SCHOOL

DESIGN, CHARACTERIZATION, AND FABRICATION INTEGRATED CIRCUITS

ABOUT 

The third edition of the summer course is going to be hosted by Universidad Galileo and organized by the 2024 IEEE Latin American Conference LAEDC from May 04th – 06th 2024 in Guatemala City, Guatemala. This will be a three-day workshop including lectures, guided laboratories, tours, hands-on training, and research experience in the design, fabrication, and applications of integrated circuits (IC) fabricated in Latin America.

This Summer School features high-quality speakers. It will be a three-day course with 09 lectures from Industry (Synopsys) and Academia (Universidad Galileo/USF).
