Foreword Dear participant in the second European Workshop on Microelectronics Education, It is a pleasure to present you the Proceedings of the Second European Workshop on Microelectronics Education and to welcome you at the Workshop. The Organising Committee is very pleased that it has found several key persons, with highly appreciated levels of knowledge and expertise, willing to present Invited Contributions to this Workshop. We have striven for an interesting spread over important areas like the expected demands for educated engineers in the wide field of Microelectronics, and Microsystems, in European industry (and beyond!) and innovations in method and focus of our educational programmes. This is the second European Workshop in this area; the first one was held in Grenoble in France in the spring of 1996. It was the initiative of Georges Kamarinos, Nadine Guillemot and Bernard Courtois to organise this Workshop because they felt that Microelectronics was 'at a turning point' to become the core of the largest industry in the world and that this warranted a serious (re-)consideration of our educational imperatives. It is now two years since and their feeling has become reality: nobody doubts that by the year 2000 the microelecnonics industry will be the largest industrial sector. It is also obvious that because of that and because of the predicted shortfall of educated engineers we must continuously reconsider the quality of our educational approach. There are two main questions here: are we teaching the right things and are we teaching them the right way? Nobody can claim to have an answer to these questions but it is through Workshops like this one that we can open our minds to people who have formulated answers from their points of view. May be some consensus may arise from this and almost certainly this Workshop will give you new ideas and inspiration. The forma( of the Workshop emphasises Work and Shop. There are a very limited number of oral presentations: only those contributions that will interest a large number of people next to the invjted papers are presented orally in extended form. Each session is followed by a panel discussion instead of discussions after each paper; this is the 'Work' part. The 'Shop' part is 'formed by the demonstrations/poster presentations. Here we have sessions lasting 2 hours or more in which a maximum of 8 short oral presentations are given followed by demonstrations and a more personal interaction. VI People can walk around and 'Shop' to fill their minds with new ideas and meet the people behind the ideas. Our close interaction with the American counterpart of this Workshop, the MicroSystems Education conference, is also new. We are pleased to welcome representatives of this conference in our midst and it is the intention to closely relate both events in such a way that we have a yearly meeting, alternating between the US and Europe. From the programme you can see this international orientation with invited speakers from the US, Canada, Japan and Australia. We have received abstracts from 30 different countries, so the Workshop truly is an International Workshop! It is the intention of the organisers that a Workshop like this becomes a forum of which everyone feels it is the natural meeting place for people in our profession; if you are serious about your job, you should be there! It is not a scientific conference pur sang; we do not have a best paper award since the mere effort of everyone to reflect and be innovative is best practice in itself. We hope you enjoy the Workshop.
