Brandenburg University of Technology Cottbus-Senftenberg and IHP Microelectronics organise the first 5-day internal RESCUE ETN Winter Workshop in December, 2017. The event will be held in Cottbus, Germany in the BTU campus with one training day at the IHP site in Frankfurt-Oder.
The event targets to gather for the first time the complete RESCUE training network including the 15 recruited ESRs, academic and industrial supervisors, external and internal trainers of technical and transferable skills, partner organisation members and advisory board members.
The intensive agenda of the workshop includes:
- orientation to the European Training Network RESCUE organisation and concepts
- technical academic and industrial tutorials
- training of transferable skills
- half-day discussions of intranetwork research collaboration of ESRs and exchanging ideas for ESRs’ individual career development
- Supervisory Board meeting and meetings with the External Expert Advisory Board
- ESR Assembly caucus
- as well as social and networking activities
One full training day will be held in the premises of the IHP Microelectronics institute allowing RESCUE ESRs to visit the European cutting-edge technology labs for nanoelectronics manufacturing and hardware security research environments.
There is an online exam, where students are requested to answer 2-3 technical questions for each tutorial.
The exam will be a basis for receiving credit points at the host universities, and will also allow lecturers to follow the perception of the material by the workshop attendees.
The set of exam questions and instructions are here.
The workshop is organised in cooperation with the H2020-TWINN TUTORIAL project (overlapping partners: TUT, TUD, PDT). This cooperation has enabled participation in the workshop by selected non-RESCUE PhD students from these universities.
The General Chair for the 1st RESCUE Winter Workshop is Prof. H.T. Vierhaus (BTU).
