A.A.S. Semiconductor Manufacturing Technology
Program Admissions Requirements
This program accepts students every 8 weeks during the Fall, Spring, and Summer semesters. The curriculum is self-paced and built on a competency-based model. All theory courses are completed online course-by-course. Students must schedule hands-on labs with their instructors for proficiency check-offs prior to starting the next course. Students must achieve an ALEKS score of 30 or higher (or equivalent SAT/ACT scores, or math courses) to be admitted. For more information, contact David Gorham at (208) 840-0766.
