Todd G. Ulmer, a Staff Member at MIT Lincoln Laboratory,
also noted, “The MiRC training program helped me get up and
running in the clean room quickly and efficiently. Thanks to the
personalized attention I received via the program, I learned not
just to navigate the control interfaces of the processing tools,
but also some of the fundamental physics and chemistry behind
the processes. The hands-on instruction provided practical engineering
experience that no textbook or traditional classroom
course could hope to offer. The processing skills I acquired in
the training program were essential to the success of my doctoral
research and are utilized daily in my career as a device engineer
at a federally funded research and development center.”
