ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:
EWME 2018 is the 12th European Workshop on Microelectronics Education. The previous ones were held in Southhampton (2016), Tallinn (2014), Grenoble (1996, 2012), Darmstadt (2010), Budapest (2008), Stockholm (2006), Lausanne (2004), Vigo (2002), Aix-en-Provence (2000), and Noordwijkerhout (1998). This is the second time that the Workshop has been held in Germany. EWME is held every second year in Europe, while MSE (Microelectronic Systems Education) is held every other year in the USA.

EWME 2018 will take place in Braunschweig, Germany, from September 24 to 26, 2018. The workshop location is sited at Technische Universität Braunschweig, one of the oldest Technical Universities in Germany and member of the TU9 Association of Technical Universities. The origins of TU Braunschweig go back to the Collegium Carolinum, which was founded by Duke Carl I in 1745. It was renamed »Polytechnische Schule« (Polytechnical College) in 1862, before becoming »Herzogliche Technische Hochschule Carolo-Wilhelmina« (Ducal Technical College Carolo-Wilhelmina) in 1878. When a faculty of law and a faculty of philosophy were added, it developed from a technical college into an Institute of Technology. One of its many distinguished alumni was the »Prince of Mathematicians« Carl Friedrich Gauß, born in Braunschweig in 1777.

EWME 2018 will is organized by the Chair for Chip Design for Embedded Computing (C3E) at TU Braunschweig in close cooperation with the Institute of Computer Engineering (ITI) at Univ. of Lübeck.
