Program Highlights

• A program designed for students with excellent preparation in the physical sciences and engineering.
• An excellent multidisciplinary faculty sharing resources and expertise
• Program administered by the Ph.D. Program in Microsystems Engineering Committee, which includes Core Faculty members from Colleges of Engineering and Science
• A unique clean-room and research laboratories designed for and dedicated to providing a world-class focus for microsystems engineering research across traditional disciplinary boundaries.
• Collaboration with industry and government laboratories.
• The need within the international scientific and engineering communities for students trained in microsystems has prompted Rochester Institute of Technology to combine resources and create the Doctoral Program in Microsystems Engineering. This multidisciplinary degree provides the student with a fundamental background in sciences and engineering which should prepare the student for a successful career.
• The PhD in Microsystems Engineering is the first of its kind in the nation
