Test engineering education: a guide to a successful curriculum

Virtual Instrumentation Based IC Parametric Tester for Engineering Education

“…Importance of training in electronic test technology as a part of an undergraduate education program in electronic engineering has been acknowledged and extensively discussed in the literature in the recent years, e.g., in [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. The major difficulty in incorporating test technology education and training into a curriculum of an electronic engineering degree offered at the majority of higher education institutions is an extremely high cost of industry-grate automated test equipment.…”

Developing An Industry Driven Graduate Certificate In Test Engineering For Electrical Engineering Technologists

“…In a survey conducted on test engineers in industry 2 In addition to the required courses, a list of new elective courses is also added. Table 3 shows the list of the elective courses.…”

Introduction of Semiconductor Test Engineering into the BSEE Curriculum

“…Most test engineers report learning their craft through other means, such as on the job training from co-workers to even trial and error. 3 It has been estimated that about six months of training is typically required to bring a new hire up to speed using sophisticated semiconductor test equipment. 4 A recent survey of leaders from the semiconductor industry underscores the desire for more universities to introduce material into their curriculum that more closely reflects the practices of industry, such as test program development.…”
