How effective are VLSI training Institutes in 2025?

Before we start talking about VLSI Training Institutes in detail we should know little bit about term “VLSI”. Well, VLSI is not anymore the name which needs any introduction, few years back only few individuals used to know about what VLSI Industry is all about? But atleast in last couple of years, It has been in trend. India wants to thrive the semiconductor wave like many other countries. So Government of India has been trying to deploy semiconductor manufacturing facilities in India and TATA this year have started the same. These activities have worked as a catalyst to fuel up the awareness regarding VLSI industry among Indian people.

These all happenings in VLSI space also emphasizes that in coming year there is going to be significant demand of VLSI engineers. Now to meet those demand skilled engineers would be needed. So far big global companies have been recruiting mostly from top tier colleges. VLSI is the field which offers lucrative package & facilities.

Since there are lot of work ongoing in this space that means various startups have also come into the game. But not every startup can go & hire top minds from tier 1 colleges at a good pay scale. So they need trained individuals at a lower PayScale compare to what big MNC’s offers to freshers who can start working from day 1 in the company. This is where VLSI Training institutes comes into the picture.

Need of VLSI Training Institutes

As we discussed that startups need individual who are trained in VLSI field and can work at a bit lower salaries. Tier 2-3 students need opportunities to work in VLSI domain but the problem with them is that they even don’t know the basics of VLSI & colleges don’t care much about this. Even some colleges are teaching old outdated syllabus to students which is of no use in industry. To fuflill this demand & supply gap VLSI training Institutes are there.

These institutes offers 6 month to 1 year VLSI training program to students who want to pursue VLSI as a career. These VLSI training institutes teach basics of VLSI & help students to complete few VLSI oriented projects so that they can learn the skill set needed in the VLSI industry. Now many of these VLSI training institutes have tie-ups with few startups whom they contact for recruitment. Startups happily takes the students form these institutes because they get trained students whom startups don’t need to teach from basics and also since many of these students are from tier2-3 colleges so they easily accepts the low salary packages also because ultimately they want to get any job opportunities.

Is it really required to join VLSI Training institutes?

See it depends on 2 things: Your Interest in VLSI domain & Your college & its Lab facilities.

First of all, if you want to make career in VLSI industry then only you should think about joining any VLSI training institute otherwise there is no need to join it. Secondly what matters is from which college you are pursuing your engineering & what facilities it offers. If you are doing graduation from top tier college where every year big semiconductor companies comes for recruitment then definitely your college will already be having those resources which you require to get a job in VLSI company, utilize those effectively.

If you are from that college where companies do not come for placement & even in your labs you don’t have any CAD tools available which is needed for circuit design, layout design, physical design etc. then you don’t have any other option. VLSI tools licensing cost is pretty high that’s the reason not every college have these tools available.

So in that case you can join VLSI training institutes so that you have accessibility of VLSI tools and you can learn effectively.

How good these Institutes are in terms of Job opportunities?

While selecting the VLSI training institute for yourself check the previous track record of these institutes. How many placements they provided to the last batch? How many industry ties-ups they have? But also make sure its not the completely training institute responsibility to get you job. You need to shine up your skills and try to advertise them through professional social network platforms. Try to share your projects which you did or your learnings with your connections. It will highlight your work among big audience and who knows you can get a decent call for Job.
