SANTA ROSA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Mar 24, 2026–
Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS) has announced the launch of three innovative semiconductor teaching lab solutions aimed at equipping universities with the tools necessary to prepare students for careers in the global semiconductor industry. The solutions—Basic Design and Measurement, Parametric Test and On-Wafer Measurement, and Photonics IC Measurement—enable students to gain practical experience using professional-grade tools and workflows prevalent in semiconductor research, development, and manufacturing.
As the semiconductor sector continues to expand at a rapid pace, academic institutions are increasingly pressured to produce graduates who are ready to meet industry demands. Recognising that theoretical knowledge alone is insufficient, universities are seeking ways to provide students with hands-on experience with the measurement techniques, workflows, and tools utilised in real semiconductor R&D and manufacturing settings.
Keysight addresses this need by offering structured solutions for training and development. These offerings provide a progressive learning pathway that reflects actual semiconductor test workflows. Students will engage in hands-on activities involving the setup of professional measurement hardware, conducting fundamental electrical tests, device characterisation, and photonic IC characterisation using industry-standard equipment, all guided by comprehensive lab modules.
Key Benefits
- Hands-on experience with professional measurement tools.
- Alignment of academic training with industry requirements.
- Structured learning pathways that mirror real-world practices.
- Enhanced employability for graduates entering the semiconductor workforce.
Lim Han Sing, Vice President of General Electronics Measurement Solutions at Keysight Technologies, stated, “Both educators and the wider industry play a critical role in developing the next generation of semiconductor engineers. By integrating real-world measurement techniques into the classroom, Keysight is assisting educators in delivering practical, job-relevant training that aligns closely with industry needs. This initiative aims to bridge the gap between education and practical experience, thereby supporting the future workforce.”
