Course overview

Designed for learners curious about the future of technology, this course uncovers how semiconductors are made, why they matter, and how circularity, ethics, and policy influence their impact. Through hands-on investigations and team challenges, you’ll examine how real-world decisions affect sustainability and discover the diverse career paths emerging across this fast-growing industry. 

What you will learn: 

  • How circular economy principles apply to the lifecycle of semiconductors, including e-waste, sustainability challenges, and opportunities for positive policy or design change. 
  • How current and emerging deep-tech innovations, from quantum computing to IoT , are transforming the semiconductor landscape and helping address global sustainability issues. 
  • How to map, analyse, and communicate semiconductor supply chain systems using digital tools, demonstrating your understanding through visual artefacts and presentations. 
  • How to collaborate effectively to identify supply chain challenges, co-design sustainable solutions, and communicate ideas clearly while connecting innovation, sustainability, and future tech careers.
