“…al. [13] proposed an attractive sequence that includes digital, analog and mixedsignal aspects of IC design. To help students overcome the fears of learning analog circuit design and handle the fast pace of the course, multiple hands-on learning experiences have been employed that allow the students to learn IC design using multiple modalities and observe real-world effects of ICs.…”

This paper presents the strategies used for effective teaching and skill development in integrated circuit design using Project-Based Learning methodologies. It presents the contexts in which these strategies are applied to IC design courses at the University of South Australia and the National Institute of Applied Science Toulouse, France. Collaborations among the faculty members of the two institutions have produced a set of learning resources and design tools to support the development of industry relevant design skills and lifelong learning skills. The courses enable students to learn about the most recent technological developments and their implications using a set of user friendly tools. The project-based learning methodologies, intuitive design tools and latest technology models have consistently produced high levels of student satisfaction with the overall quality of the courses at the two institutions.

“…In addition, there are many faculties put their course materials on the Internet and they are available to everyone to view and learn about how this topic is being taught at different universities [9-15]. More material is available on journals where the experience of some researchers and instructors in teaching VLSI courses are highlighted [16][17].…”

This paper describe the first VLSI graduate course details for students studying in the field of computer engineering, electrical engineering, computer science, and information technology. An overview of how VLSI course is taught in universities world wide has been covered in this paper. The curriculum of the introductory course in VLSI in different parts of the world has been investigated in this paper. However, we focused on the teaching of the "introduction to VLSI design" course at our academic institution -University of Michigan at Dearborn. The paper also focuses on the CAD tools used by universities to enhance the proclivity of the students towards the course.
