Course Overview

A Brief Introduction of Micro – Sensors course by Swayam introduces learners to micro - and nano-sensors fabrications. This elective study is based on communications and electrical engineering. It is a Faculty Development Programme (FDP) approved by AICTE. An e-certificate is available with the course. For the certificate, candidates must submit all assignments and write a final proctored examination.

Set at a postgraduate level of study, the Brief Introduction of Micro – Sensors certification syllabus integrates online learning through video lectures and practical application of concepts through assignments. Learners will understand the principles of strain-stress in energy dissipation used to design such sensors. Other topics include pressure sensors, lithography, MEM sensor applications, microfabrication, and accelerometers.

The Brief Introduction of Micro – Sensors training is curated by IISER Bhopal. Students will interact with the video lectures recorded by Professor Santanu Talukder from the institute. Any student interested in learning more about such sensors can apply for the course. Companies based around semiconductor and processing technology prefer students who have completed the study.
