Where we've been.

21 Aug 2026Site visitMarvell Singapore
Behind the Scenes at Marvell Technology
Marvell engineers took students through silicon photonics and its place in next-generation connectivity, then through analog design verification and the rigour behind chip reliability. The visit opened all four floors of the office, including the post-silicon validation lab and the intern working spaces, alongside an introduction to Marvell's Singapore operations and its internship development programme. Two NUS alumni closed the afternoon with their own routes into the industry, one from test engineering into quality system management and one from an internship into the work itself, before a quiz, prize-giving and a networking tea break.

19 Aug 2026Sharing session
Silicon Box Industry Sharing: The Future of Advanced Packaging
Engineers and leadership from Silicon Box talked students through their day-to-day work across quality and process, their own routes into the industry, and the company's growth and global expansion in advanced packaging. The centrepiece was a fireside chat on the future of the field: how packaging is evolving alongside increasingly complex semiconductor systems, the engineering roles and career pathways that come with it, and the skills students can build toward them. Silicon Box's chief financial officer joined for the Q&A, and the afternoon closed with informal networking.

11 Mar 2026Sharing session
Inside IC Design with AMD: Exploring the Intricacies of Chip Engineering
AMD engineers walked through the full IC design flow, from architectural planning to tape-out, across digital and analog design and both front-end and back-end roles. The session went into verification complexity and the power, performance and area trade-offs engineers balance in practice, then closed with a career segment, a Q&A and networking over refreshments.
SpeakersKwee Peng Yap, Azarudin Abdulla, Lee Wen Bin, Zi Huang Liu, Simin Xu, Catherine Ong

27 Feb 2026Site visitUMC P3 Fab, Singapore
UMC Site Visit: Manufacturing and Silicon Photonics
Students toured UMC's newest P3 fab, including the cleanroom and the failure analysis labs, and saw how 22nm and 28nm production runs alongside the plant's ongoing expansion. Engineers walked through the roles behind a finished wafer, and the discussion turned to how demand for bandwidth and power efficiency is pulling silicon photonics forward. An HR sharing on career pathways and a Q&A closed the visit.

What we do

Three ways in.

The club exists to close the distance between studying semiconductors and working in them. Everything we run is one of three kinds of access.

Site visits

Get past the lobby.

We take members into the places where chips are actually made and tested. You gown up, walk the floor, and see the tools that turn a blank wafer into product. It is the fastest way to find out whether the work looks like what you imagined.

Seminars and fireside chats

Ask the people already doing the job.

Engineers, process specialists and managers sit down with members to talk about how they got in, what the day-to-day is really like, and what they would tell a student starting now. Small rooms, real questions, no recruiting script.

Open to all members

Industry events

Be in the room.

We bring members to industry days, exhibitions and networking sessions across Singapore's semiconductor scene. These are the rooms where companies, associations and the people who do the hiring actually turn up.

The NUS Semiconductor Club committee for AY 2026/27

In our words

Hear from us.

Lim Tiong Lee FrancisPresident, AY 2026/27
Most of us joined the club knowing semiconductors only from lectures, videos, or headlines. Here, that curiosity becomes firsthand experience through industry visits, company talks, and conversations with the people building the technology. You don't need to know everything to start. You just need to be curious.
Zhang JucaiSecretary, AY 2026/27
Once you put yourself out there, you realise what you are truly capable of. NUSSCC extends your ability to reach further into the industry, and it's up to you to grab ahold of your own potential. With NUSSCC, you can dive as deep and far as your imagination can take you.
Nooka SatyendraInternal Executive, AY 2026/27
Being part of NUSSCC has easily been one of the most rewarding experiences of my journey at NUS so far. From insightful industry talks and corporate site visits to invaluable mentorship and peer networking, the club continues to provide me with tremendous growth opportunities. I'm truly grateful to be part of such an impactful community!
Tran Quang Minh DuyVice President, AY 2025/26
There's always more than what you see at first. A snake is more than scales and instinct. A chip is more than silicon and circuitry. You only really appreciate them once you get closer. That was what drew me to semiconductors: understanding the technology, the people behind it, and the industry shaping what comes next.
Chua Tse HuiPresident, AY 2024/25
The club is not meant to be just a place where students and industry converge, but a community of individuals, companies, and organisations, etc. brought together by a shared interest or connection to semiconductors, rich with opportunities for anyone curious to step in, learn and grow... And just see where it takes you!
Ian Tay RongdeVice President, AY 2023-25
Our vision for the club is for it to become a useful bridge between the NUS community and the semiconductor industry, allowing students to obtain an insight into this dynamic and rapidly growing industry, as well as laying the foundation for future collaboration between the student community and companies in Singapore's semiconductor scene.
Muhammad Shalihin Bin FaizalFounder
The vision was never just to start a club but to build a lasting semiconductor community at NUS that brings together students, researchers and the industry, and to continuously create opportunities for all regardless of background.
