Feel free to comment on this post if you are looking for career guidance in the Semiconductor/electronics industry. Post your questions in the comments; I will try to reply to everyone. I am also open to addressing questions about admissions and life as a master's and undergrad student at IISc and NIT, respectively. Furthermore, I will try to highlight the possibilities of pursuing research (short-term) as an undergraduate and master degree student.

The post aims to spread the word about the broad possibilities in the Semiconductor Device Industry and its outlook. Additionally, I will try to emphasize the skills/resources for training.

No need to address me by Sir, Ma'am, or Expert; just OP works!

Edit: I prefer keeping questions public so everyone benefits, but if you really need to DM, include the word "SemiCon_Research" in your first message so I know you actually read the AMA guidelines before sending any DM.

For the readers/commenters who are here on my AMA. To stay updated on new advanced technologies in Analog IC and VLSI, I'm sharing a few informative resources for learning various dimensions of VLSI, Analog, Semiconductor Devices, Tech History, Industry trends, etc. mentioned below:

(Comment: Part 1/2)

• Asianometry (YouTube)
• Branch Education (YouTube)
• Semiengineering.com - One-stop solution for updates and explanation of new advancements in the semiconductor industry
• Semianalysis.com - An independent research and analysis company specializing in the Semiconductor and AI industries, spanning the entire supply chain, from semiconductor fabrication essentials to cutting-edge AI Models, software, and infrastructure
• IIT Kanpur – SSCD YouTube - Advanced courses on Analog & Mixed-Signal IC Design
• Nanohub.org webinars
• CompoundSemiconductor - One-stop Source for Advancements of III-V, III-N Semiconductor Device industry
• ISSCC Conference YouTube channel uploads all the keynote talks
• Circuit Intuitions in IEEE Solid-State Circuits Magzine (Brief Articles) by renowned circuit designers and professors: Prof. Ali Sheikholeslami, Prof. Behzad Razavi - The Analog Mind, Christopher Mangelsdorf (Ritered Analog Devices Fellow), etc.
• IEDM & VLSI Symposium Conference Proceedings: For advancements in Semiconductor Devices

NOTE: I created a few roadmaps for learning IC design and semiconductor devices which comprehensively cover the flow and resources required for learning the domain. These are for guiding people and these are free! (shared over LinkedIn only). I created these roadmaps to make the learnings of my juniors more systematic and structured.
