Join us for the FSI “Taste of Tech” Seminar at the Nanoscale Research Facility (NRF), Room 115. Friday May 24, 11:45 AM – 1:00 PM

Unlock Frontiers: Explore with UF Professor Mark Sheplak, collaborators, Dr. Roozbeh Tabrizian and Dr. Philip Feng, technology development towards monolithically-integrated dynamic pressure sensors for operation in high temperature environments up to 800 C as part of a 6.6M$ DARPA project in collaboration with NASA Glenn Research Center and EngeniusMicro.

Visionary Insights: Hear from Dr. David Arnold, Acting Director of FSI, as he unveils our bold vision for the Florida Semiconductor Institute, where collaboration sparks transformative breakthroughs.

A team of researchers, led by Dr. Mark Sheplak, Dr. Roozbeh Tabrizian, and Dr. Philip Feng aim to overcome the challenge of existing sensors faltering under extreme temperatures.

Governor Ron DeSantis has proposed an $80 million investment for the University of Florida’s Florida Semiconductor Institute (FSI) in the upcoming 2024 legislative session.

The Statewide Semiconductor Initiative on Friday, November 17, hosted by the Florida Semiconductor Institute at the University of Florida, proved to be a resounding success.

Designed to set the standard for future STEM buildings across national and international campuses and transform the artificial intelligence (AI) and data science workforce, the University of Florida Friday held a celebratory ribbon cutting for the Malachowsky Hall for Data Science & Information Technology.

Dr. David Arnold is leading a project funded by the Florida DoE aimed at developing a pre-baccalaureate workforce strategic plan to support the growing semiconductor industry in the State of Florida.

The semiconductor industry is evolving beyond traditional cost-cutting and size reduction methods. Designers are exploring Heterogeneous Integration (HI) to enhance cost-effectiveness and functionality through advanced packaging.

The University of Florida’s Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering has launched the Florida Semiconductor Institute (FSI). FSI will be a central hub, both on campus and across the state, dedicated to leading advancements in semiconductor technology for the 21st century.
