Master at MICAS
The MICAS professors perform state-of-the-art research in the field of micro-electronics, and pass on this knowledge to their students in KU Leuven’s master program. Each MICAS professor teaches various micro-electronics courses in the master of Electrical Engineering at the faculty of Engineering Science of KU Leuven. In this master program you can learn about the advanced aspects of analog, RF, mm-wave and digital circuit design.
This Master program (Master EE - option Electronics and Chip Design) prepares you for the next generation of integrated circuits and systems. This program has a duration of 2 years, and consists of 96 credits of courses and projects, and 24 credits of a research master thesis.
The Department of Electrical Engineering (ESAT) is the largest department within the university with top research groups in integrated circuit design ( MICAS ). It was the starting point of imec and many integrated circuits spin-off companies . With such an excellent reputation within an innovative industry, this program exemplifies the link between education, research and valorization.

KU Leuven Micro-Credential Course on Analog Layout 2024
The MICAS (KU Leuven) Micro-Credential Course on Analog Layout concluded this week at KU Leuven ESAT-MICAS, taught by industry experts from ICsense , SOFICS , OMNIVISION , Cyient , and Caeleste .
Organised by Prof. Patrick Reynaert , the course offered the opportunity to learn from industry experts in the microelectronics field, introduced the layout of analog integrated circuits, software tools, reliability aspects of the devices and much more. Participants took part in theoretical sessions as well as several hands-on training sessions over eight days.
Arne Crouwels , Senior Analog Design Engineer at Caeleste, presented the fifth and sixth day of the course. This included a full overview of image sensing concepts, review of diode theory, introduction to pixel array layouts, floor-planning, pixel drivers and readout chain. Hands-on sessions allowed attendees design and lay-out their own custom sensor design with professional guidance and advice on-hand.
The concluding module introduced large wafer scale and stitched design layout, covering micro-lenses and light guides, layout optimization for yield and 3D stacking technologies, preparing the attendees for the future challenges faced by the industry.
The initiative underlines the strategic importance of the microelectronics industry to the Belgian and European economies, providing a broad array of training solutions to reskill and upskill the workforce to face the challenges of this ever-changing industry.
Interested in participating? Further micro-credential courses begin later this year, including digital verification, GaN technology and mixed-signal design, continuing from May 2024.

Master students can either propose their own subject for their master thesis or select from this predefined list of thesis proposals. If you would like to propose your own thesis subject, coached by the COSIC Research Group, please contact one of the faculty members to discuss your proposal. Available master thesis topics 2023-2024
Master's thesis. A Master's thesis gives a student the opportunity to attack a specific problem and gain more in-depth knowledge. This problem is large and interesting enough to justify an effort of 24 credits. Larger problems can constitute a Master's thesis for a group of two students. Examples from previous years' theses can give you an idea ...
A Master's thesis corresponds to 600-720 h (24 credits x 25-30 h/credit) per student. Presentations Interim presentation. An interim presentation of approximately 20 minutes is planned during the last week before Christmas holidays by the POC secretary. There is no interim presentation for students submitting their Master's thesis in January.
During the 1st and the 3rd examination period, the defense of the Master's theses is organized 3 or 4 days before the deliberation. In the 2nd examination period, the defense takes place the week before the deliberation. Please check the specific deadlines for your programme. Master's thesis Prizes 2023-2024 Deadline: June 7th, 2024 before 2 PM.
