Frequently asked questions
It is estimated that it will take 20 hours to complete this Specialization.
Learners are recommended to have background in high school level Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics. Some concepts will be more readily understood with an introductory background in Electrical Engineering (college freshman level).
Yes. It is recommended that learners complete "Introduction to Microfabrication," "Microfabrication Fundamental Processes," and "Additional Process Techniques in Microfabrication" first, and in that order. The remaining two courses may be completed in any order afterwards.
