Through the agreement, Soitec will help Phelma’s students and graduates to kickstart their careers by offering internships, jobs, and international work experience.
Sharing expertise
Soitec experts will also get involved in Phelma’s engineering curriculum and participate in career conferences for first-year students covering jobs and career opportunities in specific industries, as well as more cross-disciplinary conferences that focus on societal issues and are open to the wider public.
Participating in campus life
Soitec has committed to participating in conferences, taking part in third-year mock interviews and attending Phelma’s Partnership Day.
“Phelma is a leading school for microelectronics students. Through the partnership, we want to play our part in training the engineers who will support Soitec’s future growth,” said Pascal Lobry, EVP People and Sustainability at Soitec.
“We strive to build close relationships with our partners in all of our regions, which is why we are
joining forces with Phelma,” said Michaël Fièvre, Director of the Bernin site.
