Keysight Introduces Hands-On Semiconductor Teaching Labs for Universities

Keysight Technologies, Inc. announced three new semiconductor teaching lab solutions designed to help universities prepare students for careers in the global semiconductor industry. The three solutions — Basic Design and Measurement, Parametric Test and On-Wafer Measurement, and Photonics IC Measurement—provide students with practical experience using professional-grade tools and workflows that are commonly used in semiconductor research, development, and manufacturing.

As the semiconductor industry accelerates globally, universities face increasing pressure to produce graduates who are industry ready. Academic institutions recognize that theory alone is no longer sufficient, and students must gain hands on experience with the same measurement techniques, workflows, and tools used in real semiconductor R&D and manufacturing environments.

Keysight addresses this challenge by providing solutions designed for training and development. As part of this effort, Keysight delivers a structured, progressive learning pathway that mirrors real-world semiconductor test workflows. Students gain hands-on experience setting up professional measurement hardware, performing fundamental electrical tests, device characterization, and photonic IC characterization using industry-standard equipment with guided lab modules.

Key benefits include:

• Hands-on training with industry-standard semiconductor instruments, measurements, and workflows.
• Structured lab modules that help students connect textbook concepts to real-world semiconductor applications.
• A learning approach that aligns theory with practice and prepares students for professional engineering careers.
