Abstract

This paper describes the effort of creating a joint international graduate program in the area of semiconductor product engineering and power electronics. As a first step, a joint summer course for undergraduate students is implemented with the intention to create a larger interest in the program among the current undergraduate population at Texas Tech University and the University of Applied Sciences, two of the institutions jointly offering this degree.
