CHIP
Nanotechnology Partnership Moves Forward
SUNYIT and UAlbany have launched the Computer Chip Hybrid Integration Partnership (CHIP), an inter-regional, cross-university structure for promoting the nanoelectronics industry.
Funded by $225 million from New York State, IBM, SEMATECH and Intel, CHIP is creating:
- The Computer Chip Integration Center (CCIC) at the University at Albany's College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering for nanotech research and development of "system on a chip" (SOC) technologies
- The Computer Chip Commercialization Center (CCCC) at SUNYIT with a state-of-the-art "clean room" for assembly and integration of SOC technologies, a business incubator to attract chip suppliers and contractors, and the first-ever SEMATECH Center in Upstate New York.
- A joint UAlbany-SUNYIT educational and training curriculum to prepare workers for careers in computer chip integration and deployment.
