FORGOTTEN HISTORY: School students try their hand at designing integrated circuits - Caught on Camera

Digital University Kerala (DUK) conducted a novel workshop on integrated circuit (IC) design for middle school-level students at the Centre of Excellence AI Chip Design Centre on Saturday.

The programme was organised in association with IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) Circuits and Systems Society (CASS) for students of Classes 6 to 10. The hands-on learning programme focused on open-source tools to encourage the budding technologists to build, simulate and test their own circuits.

“The event is part of our endeavours to encourage innovation and show how important chips are in the modern world. The workshop aimed to bring focus back on the core technical field rather than just artificial intelligence (AI) and automation,” DUK Dean (Academics) and programme coordinator Alex James said.
