Abstract

The growth of the semiconductor industry has spurred several partnerships between colleges and industry throughout the United States. In Albuquerque, New Mexico, the partnership between Albuquerque TVI a Community College and Intel Corporation has lead to the development of a 1200 square foot cleanroom that is used by the college as a laboratory to train students and instructors for the semiconductor industry. This paper addresses the philosophy of the laboratory and discusses the various lab activities that are used to prepare students for the semiconductor industry.
