The objective of the course is to enhance students' abilities in areas such as creating semiconductor devices and circuits as well as designing systems using embedded components. VLSI Design encompasses the latest advancements in the field, emphasising a hierarchical design approach and practical implementation. M.Tech (Masters of Technology) VLSI Design is a postgraduate programme specifically focused on VLSI Design. It is a two-year course divided into four semesters, with each semester lasting six months. Individuals with an M.Tech. in VLSI Design can pursue career opportunities in both public and private organisations, holding positions such as Design Engineer, Software Engineer, Software Developer, Project Leader, Assistant Professor, System Engineer, Project Coordinator, and more.
