The program provided education on basic knowledge of semiconductor and other advanced root industry process engineering, as well as various applied technologies. Classes will be held for two weeks until the 26th. Students will learn theories on digital signal processing such as electronic engineering and participate in practical classes related to equipment system operation.
Kim Kyung-hee, Mayor of Icheon, said, "The technological gap in future promising industries, including semiconductors, depends on securing excellent talent," adding, "Icheon City will focus on systematically nurturing outstanding talent so that it can leap forward as a hub of advanced technology industries."
