100 places are available for the period from February to August 2027.<\/h3>\n

The program is a joint initiative of the Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space (BMFTR), the Saxon State Ministry of Science, Culture and Tourism (SMWK), TU Dresden and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (TSMC). Due to the great interest from other federal states and the importance of the Saxon-Taiwanese project for the future of Germany as a semiconductor location, it is now being offered nationwide following its successful launch.<\/p>\n

Saxon Minister of Science Sebastian Gemkow: “With a view to the urgently needed skilled workers in the semiconductor industry in Saxony and Germany, STIPT is pursuing the goal of securing the next generation of skilled workers and is already targeting them during their studies. The program has established itself and offers very high-quality training in close partnership between the scientific institutions and TSMC.”<\/p>\n

So far, more than 100 students from various fields of engineering and natural sciences, including electrical engineering, microelectronics, nanoelectronics, materials science, mechatronics, mechanical engineering, device technology, automation technology, robotics, sensor technology, physics and chemistry, have taken advantage of the offer.<\/p>\n

The University of Excellence TU Dresden administers the programme on behalf of the SMWK and organizes the exchange with partner universities and TSMC in Taiwan with the Saxon Science Liaison Office Taiwan. In total, the federal and state governments provide around 900,000 euros per year to fund STIPT. The federal government contributes 40 percent of the costs.<\/p>\n
