A new course designed by the Fulton Schools and Global Launch will soon give opportunities to college students in Mexico to learn the fundamentals of microelectronics and nanoelectronics in a free, online ASU course. The course is part of ASU’s binational knowledge partnership with Mexico, designed to advance North American competitiveness and ensure the global semiconductor supply chain meets demands for digital security and transformation worldwide. ASU President Michael Crow says he expects hundreds of thousands of students to eventually be educated through the program. Mexico’s Secretary of Education Mario Delgado says the effort will propel a revolution to benefit the technology sector in the U.S. and Mexico.
