Finland

The growth of the semiconductor sector and its investments in Finland are increasing the need for new skilled personnel. To answer the need, The Finnish semiconductor industry is supporting Aalto University to offer job opportunities for students to work in Aalto research groups on semiconductor-related topics at Aalto University’s School of Electrical Engineering (ELEC), School of Chemical Engineering (CHEM) and School of Science (SCI). With the support from Applied Materials/Picosun, Okmetic, Murata, Bosch Sensortec, Kyocera Technologies and Canato, Aalto University’s School of Electrical Engineering (ELEC) and School of Chemical Engineering (CHEM) are now offering summer jobs for students to work in different Aalto research groups on semiconductor-related topics. The aim of this summer job program is to provide an opportunity to gain the skills needed in a growing and international field. The semiconductor sector offers a wide range of career opportunities in Finnish and international companies and students can find their place in areas such as silicon wafers, sensors or process and equipment development.

The positions are suitable for both Bachelor and Master level students and the exact content of the work will be tailored based on the applicant’s own interests (and skills) and the group’s research profile. These positions are an excellent choice for those students that want to work later in Finnish semiconductor industry.
