Central University of Jammu ECE students gain hands-on exposure at India’s Premier Semiconductor (Semiconductor Laboratory - SCL) in Mohali

JAMMU: The Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, Central University of Jammu, organized an educational and technical visit to the Semiconductor Laboratory (SCL), Mohali.  The visit offered participating students a valuable opportunity to gain exposure to the nation’s premier semiconductor research and development facility.

Under the guidance of eminent scientists and engineers at SCL, the students observed advanced processes including cleanroom operations, wafer fabrication, lithography, etching, doping, and semiconductor packaging. They also toured testing laboratories, where integrated circuits are rigorously validated prior to their use in critical sectors such as space, defence, and high-speed communication systems.

A total of 25 students from the 2nd and 3rd year of the B.Tech. ECE program took part in the visit.This initiative reflects the vision of Hon’ble Vice Chancellor, Central University of Jammu, Prof. Sanjeev Jain and aligns closely with the goals of India’s Semiconductor Mission.

The visit was coordinated by Dr. Sunil Datt Sharma Associate Professor, DoECE, Dr. Misbah Shafi Assistant Professor, DoECE and Mr. Mithul Dubey Lab Assistant, DoECE, under the supervision of Prof. Rakesh Kumar Jha, Head, DoECE.
