Where we've been.
Inside IC Design with AMD: Exploring the Intricacies of Chip Engineering
AMD engineers walked through the full IC design flow, from architectural planning to tape-out, across digital and analog design and both front-end and back-end roles. The session went into verification complexity and the power, performance and area trade-offs engineers balance in practice, then closed with a career segment, a Q&A and networking over refreshments.

UMC Site Visit: Manufacturing and Silicon Photonics
Students toured UMC's newest P3 fab, including the cleanroom and the failure analysis labs, and saw how 22nm and 28nm production runs alongside the plant's ongoing expansion. Engineers walked through the roles behind a finished wafer, and the discussion turned to how demand for bandwidth and power efficiency is pulling silicon photonics forward. An HR sharing on career pathways and a Q&A closed the visit.

SemiAnalysis Sharing Session
The SemiAnalysis team gave an overview of the global semiconductor landscape, covering advanced manufacturing, packaging and equipment, and how design and architectural choices shape AI inference performance and scalability. A segment on supply chain dynamics and cost structures connected chip design through fabrication and packaging to data centre deployment, followed by a careers section and open Q&A.

AMD Site Visit: Behind the Scenes at AMD Singapore
A visit spanning design, validation, testing and product support, where students saw how cross-functional teams work across the chip development lifecycle. The day covered data-driven failure analysis and the continuous test programs behind product quality, and set out where AMD Singapore sits in the company's global engineering footprint as an R&D hub. Hiring managers joined for the sharing and networking sessions.

The archive
Everything else we've run.
9 events so far: fab floors and cleanrooms, the engineers who work in them, and the people who hire into the industry. Each one has a recap and photos.

What we do
Three ways in.
The club exists to close the distance between studying semiconductors and working in them. Everything we run is one of three kinds of access.
Site visits
Get past the lobby.
We take members into the places where chips are actually made and tested. You gown up, walk the floor, and see the tools that turn a blank wafer into product. It is the fastest way to find out whether the work looks like what you imagined.

Seminars and fireside chats
Ask the people already doing the job.
Engineers, process specialists and managers sit down with members to talk about how they got in, what the day-to-day is really like, and what they would tell a student starting now. Small rooms, real questions, no recruiting script.
- Open to all members
- Industry speakers
Industry events
Be in the room.
We bring members to industry days, exhibitions and networking sessions across Singapore's semiconductor scene. These are the rooms where companies, associations and the people who do the hiring actually turn up.

Our community
The people behind it.
Most of us joined without knowing what a cleanroom looked like from the inside. What the club does is close that gap: we get you into the rooms where the work happens, and in front of the people already doing it. If you are curious about this industry, that is enough to start.
