AIM PHOTONICS COURSE CALENDAR

In Person Courses

AIM Photonics’ instructor-led courses and workshops are designed for students and industry professionals interested in learning about integrated photonic circuit design, chip fabrication, packaging, testing, and system applications.

Participants receive a unique, hands-on experience bridging gaps between photonics courses commonly available at U.S. universities and the skills required to specifically support the design, manufacture, testing, and packaging of foundry-based integrated photonics.

Individual Paced Online Courses

Online courses in integrated photonics are offered at an individualized pace and schedule with our expert collaborators and academic partners.
