Doctoral Program in Microsystems and Microelectronics

The Doctoral Program in Microsystems and Microelectronics (EDMI) at EPFL focuses on a wide range of research topics, including MEMS, NEMS, biosensors, bioengineering, and micro- & nanoelectronics. Interdisciplinarity and technology innovation are core priorities, covering everything from novel material systems to circuit design for sensor interfacing and power management. EDMI's research expertise spans from developing MEMS & NEMS devices to exploring applications in healthcare, diagnostics, and therapeutics. The program also delves into nanoelectronics, emphasizing novel device design, nanofabrication, and integrated circuit architecture for various fields like RF, biomedical, and automotive applications. EDMI's PhD students benefit from state-of-the-art facilities like the Center of micro nano-technology (CMI) and collaborate closely with over 40 EPFL laboratories and research groups, fostering strong ties with Swiss and European industries.
