The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Banaras Hindu University (BHU) has collaborated with Applied Materials India – the Indian subsidiary of Applied Materials – to conduct research in semiconductors. The institute says this collaboration will help equip IIT BHU students with strong knowledge and in-depth learning on advances in materials engineering.
“The research collaboration of IIT BHU and Applied Materials India is an example of our commitment to strong industry-academia ties. The electronics industry is more important than ever for the global economy,” says Professor Pramod Kumar Jain, Director, IIT BHU, adding that the collaboration will help foster learning and design programs that can boost the availability of skilled manpower for the semiconductor industry. .
Speaking about the collaboration, Srinivas Satya, Country President and Managing Director, Applied Materials India said, “This collaboration will help foster industry-academic ties towards addressing the material engineering challenges in the semiconductor industry. “We also look forward to helping train young engineering students in this exciting field of advanced technology.”
Commenting on Applied’s history of industry-academic collaboration, Sujit Jha, Senior Director, Engineering Management, Applied Materials India, said, “Applied has been a pioneer in creating close links between industry and academia in India. In addition to our work in semiconductor research with IITs (BHU), we have established collaborations with other leading institutions in the fields of life sciences, AI and big data, high performance computing, flexible electronics, energy storage, specialty coatings and more. materials Engineering.”
“The association with Applied Materials India will give IIT (BHU) world-class expertise in materials engineering and semiconductor process technology. Earlier, Applied Materials India in collaboration with the IIT sponsored characterization instrument for the Institute’s Central Instrument Facility enabled students to gain practical experience in structural characterization of materials,” IIT BHU said.
