Pakistan has finalized the institutional framework for its national semiconductor education and research cluster network, completing the setup of three regional clusters. The Semiconductor Education & Research Cluster (SERC) now includes NED University of Engineering & Technology as the lead university for the South Region, NUST for the North, and ESUPAK-UET Lahore for the Central Region.
The completion of these agreements was witnessed by Federal Minister for IT and Telecommunication Shaza Fatima Khawaja during a signing ceremony in Karachi. Under the National Semiconductor Human Resource Development Program (NSHRDP), also known as INSPIRE, NED will lead semiconductor education and research activities in the South Region, with the program aiming to train over 7,200 professionals by 2030.
The achievement marks a significant milestone in Pakistan's efforts to build a competitive semiconductor ecosystem and develop the human resources needed for the global semiconductor value chain.
