  Description
Introductory activities Contents and dynamics of the topic are depicted to the students. The objectives and intended skills of the topic are explained. The URV clean room facilities are visited. Students work groups are created.
Lecture The theory and practice concepts of the topics are provided:
- Clean rooms: brief history and evolution.
- Current technologies.
- Norms and procedures.
- Technological and design features.
- Practical features.
- Future trends.
At the master classes current technologies are examined, their scope and limitations.
Laboratory practicals The students perform practical activities for the micro and nano structures. These tasks are:

1) Design tool learning.
2) Use the design tool to plan a chip.
3) Chip fabrication at the clean room.
4) Chip characterization by microscopy.
5) Result assessment.
Seminars Students alone or in groups, present several aspects related with the contents and practical work of the topic.
1) Design and operation of the clean room
2) Laboratory results presentation
3) Complete work and clean room visit presentation.
Personal tuition Students are involved in single and group tutorial sessions to go in depth in several concepts and solve theory or practice doubts.
