Reinforcing skills in semiconductors

Closed

Code: 29188 | Identifier Code: DIGITAL-2023-SKILLS-04-SEMICONDUCTORS | Programme name: 15593 | Start submission calls: 11/05/2023 | End submission calls: 26/09/2023

The share of students choosing semiconductors disciplines is too low to satisfy the demand required by the labour market. The shortage of employees with specific knowledge in semiconductors, and in particular the negligible share of students willing to undertake this field, has many different causes related to the low awareness of the impact of semiconductors in the society and citizens’ daily life, and too low expectations in terms of prospective career and employment conditions. The problem is acute, given the gap between the labour market demands and the unavailability of both technicians and high-level graduates, and it is even more exacerbated by a strong gender imbalance.

A further effort is needed to increase the workforce, i.e., the number of graduated students and of technicians, and assure the acquired skills meet the job profiles required by industry.

This topic is focused on the need for critical appraisal of existing health interventions, which may have been introduced and used by healthcare systems without rigorous evaluation in clinical trials. It is thus important to understand whether such interventions lead to better overall health in these populations.
Concerted efforts are needed to increase access to potentially lifesaving, cost-effective interventions to prevent and treat PRDs and other diseases such as diarrhoeal diseases, bacterial infections (especially those where antimicrobial resistance is an issue), sepsis and lower respiratory tract infections in pregnant women, newborns, and children to ensure solid evidence is produced for the recommended interventions and to enhance the use of existing interventions in these populations.
