• You CANNOT take the Cleanroom-Based Semiconductor Fabrication course without one of the lecture courses. 
• You CANNOT take BOTH Introduction to Semiconductor Manufacturing Technology AND Semiconductor Manufacturing and Processing. Only select ONE of these.
• Semiconductor Manufacturing and Processing Course has PREREQUISITES that MUST be met before enrollment.

Because this program is designed as a pathway to employment within the U.S., sponsor requirements set the following eligibility criteria for 2025:

1. Undergraduate and Master’s level – Scholarships are available to U.S. citizens or individuals authorized to work in the U.S.
2. Ph.D. level – Scholarships are open to all applicants, regardless of citizenship.

Applicants who meet the scholarship eligibility criteria will be automatically considered for a scholarship by submitting the Application and Scholarship Request Form.

The scholarship can cover up to the standard undergraduate tuition rate, class fees, books, housing and meals. 

Note for graduate students: If the university requires graduate-level fees, you or your department may need to cover the difference. We’ll do everything we can to provide a 100% scholarship and will let you know the final decision regarding scholarship amount once registration is processed.

If you don’t meet the scholarship eligibility criteria, you’re still very welcome to participate in the program. Check out our tuition and fees information for the base costs of our courses. 
 

HOUSING

Once you’re registered, we’ll take care of housing and/or meals for you—whatever applies to your situation. You won’t need to fill out any extra forms or applications. We’ve got it covered! Housing assignments and move in details will be provided in early May.

DINING

You can find more information about dining options on the Kent State Dining Services website. It’s a great resource to see what’s available and when locations are open!

If you’re receiving a scholarship, you’ll also get meal credits! These will be loaded onto your FlashCard and can be used at Eastway Dining Hall or the DI Hub. Just a heads-up—they won’t work at the Student Center or other nearby restaurants.

Commuter students (with scholarship):

You’ll receive 1 lunch swipe per day. Be sure to use it that same day—it won’t carry over. Meal charges begin May 26 and end June 30.

Residential students (with scholarship):

You’ll receive 3 meal swipes per day (breakfast, lunch, and dinner). Each swipe is meant for a specific meal that day, so be sure to use it as planned. Meal charges begin May 23 and end June 30.

PARKING

Each student is responsible for purchasing a parking permit. You can find all the info you need here: kent.edu/parking.

Just a heads-up—classes will be held at the College of Aeronautics and Engineering, so be sure to choose a parking pass that works for that lot.

The scholarships can cover tuition, on-campus housing, dining, parking, books and materials, with the chance of a full scholarship covering all expenses. Each student will be informed of their award amount upon review of applications.
