Taiwan Semiconductor Research Institute (TSRI) is a government-funded academic research organization dedicated to the development of semiconductor technology and talent cultivation. Since 1988, with the support of the government, TSRI has grown in conjunction with the domestic industry, academia and research sectors, emerging as the sole research institution in Taiwan that provides a comprehensive service platform ranging from component manufacturing, circuit design to system integration. TSRI boasts an open research environment and actively develops advanced semiconductor research service platforms, encompassing such areas as advanced CMOS and memory, 3D packaging, silicon photonics, compound semiconductors, and quantum computing. TSRI shares these resources with domestic industry-academia-research teams, thereby reducing the time needed for technology development and verification, and avoiding redundant resource investments. TSRI has indeed become the primary driving force for semiconductor research through collaborative efforts within the domestic industry, academia, and research sectors, nurturing the growth of highly skilled and integrated professionals in the field.
Taiwan Semiconductor Research Institute (TSRI), under the auspices of the National Applied Research Laboratories (NARLabs) of the National Science and Technology Council (NSTC), offers comprehensive training courses domestically, serving as a cornerstone in nurturing semiconductor technology talents in Taiwan. It meticulously designs comprehensive training courses covering various aspects of semiconductor education, ranging from process components to circuit systems. By providing state-of-the-art process equipment and a complete measurement and design environment, it complements the foundational theories taught in universities.

In addition to general course introductions, the curriculum incorporates practical applications and hands-on sessions related to semiconductor technology. Through project-based learning, participants gain practical experience in chip design, enhancing their proficiency in real-world applications. Each year, the center collaborates with over 50 universities and supports approximately 550 professorial research groups in outsourcing and process downstream services, thereby fostering high-level technical talents.
The center's efforts in nurturing semiconductor talents have been widely acclaimed over the years. To offer academia an unrestricted learning platform, it has also developed e-Learning courses, providing a more effective and economical means of learning. Moving forward, the center remains committed to offering forward-thinking technical training programs to cultivate a greater pool of high-quality semiconductor professionals. By equipping students with practical skills essential for the workforce, it aims to bridge the gap between academia and industry, effectively reducing the disparity between theoretical knowledge and practical application.
