Synopsys, Inc., a world leader in software and IP used in the design,
verification and manufacture of electronic components and systems,
and the National Research University of Electronic Technology (MIET),
today announced that 18 additional master's students have successfully
completed the Synopsys and MIET joint educational program and are now
ready to begin their professional engineering careers. Established in
2006, the program's goal is to educate Russian students in advanced
microelectronics, so they may lead Russia into its next stage of
technology development. The two-year master's program is based on
Synopsys Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools and a customized
curriculum for integrated circuit (IC) design. The program is offered
by the Synopsys Armenia Educational Department (SAED) through the
Synopsys University Program. To date, 92 students have successfully
graduated from the Synopsys-MIET program.
Using a proven educational model of cooperation between industry
and academia, the program is able to provide Russia's workforce with
industry-ready graduates who have the knowledge and skills required
to quickly become productive in the industry. Meeting the highest
international engineering standards, all graduates are well-equipped to
join the industry and are already employed by leading semiconductor
companies. They work as leading specialists at Mikron, Angstrem,
The Institute for Design Problems in Microelectronics of the Russian
Academy of Science, NI ELVIS, and other semiconductor companies that
contribute to Russia's growing high-tech industry.
The Synopsys and MIET joint educational program is based on a
customized curriculum for IC design that is taught jointly by Synopsys
professionals and MIET professors. The program admits 20 new students
to the two-year program every year. All students at the Synopsys-MIET
Educational Center have access to a comprehensive, industry-leading
EDA university tools package from Synopsys. In addition, Synopsys
provides educational resources such as Educational Design Kits (EDKs)
and interoperable Process Design Kits (iPDKs) for 90-nanometer (nm)
and 32/28-nm technologies, which enable state-of-the-art IC design
in an educational environment.
"Graduating the 5th class is a significant milestone and highlights
the success of the Synopsys-MIET educational program," said MIET
Rector Yuri A. Chaplygin, an associate member of the Russian Academy
of Sciences, a Doctor of Engineering Science and a professor. "Our
long-term partnership with Synopsys brings new opportunities for the
university and its students. We appreciate the contribution made by
Synopsys to training highly qualified engineers for the electronics
industry in Russia."
"The designation of MIET as Russia's National Research University of
Electronic Technology is further proof of the quality of education
that MIET provides," said Rich Goldman, vice president of Corporate
Marketing and Strategic Alliances at Synopsys and honorable professor
of MIET. "Synopsys is proud to provide software and a curriculum that
aids MIET in reaching such a high level, and we are enheartened to see
our joint graduates already positively contributing to the renaissance
of Russia's semiconductor industry."
"I am happy for yet another successful graduation," said Vazgen
Melikyan, director of SAED, honorable scientist of the Republic of
Armenia and honorable professor of MIET. "Taking into account the
fast pace of development in this very technical field, we continue
to advance the content of the educational program to deliver even
more skilled and knowledgeable graduates in the years ahead."
"During the two-year program I gained valuable experience and practice
in digital design flows, digital and analog integrated circuit design,
design automation and much more," said Piryutina Galina, a 2012
graduate of the Synopsys-MIET joint educational master's program.
Galina added, "The opportunity to use the most advanced EDA tools
from Synopsys throughout many of the program's courses was a great
contribution to understanding theoretical knowledge and demonstrating
practical skills essential to working in the industry."
