SYNOPSYS AND SEUA TO OPEN DISTANCE LEARNING CLASSES
A microelectronics distance learning class is planned to be opened at the State Engineering University of Armenia (SEUA) with the support of well-known Synopsys Company. SEUA Rector Yuri Sargsyan stated it in a conversation with a reporter of .am edition of PanARMENIAN.Net. In his words, arrangements over the idea are already made today, however negotiations to count the expenses are under way. He noted all study materials will be open to access, so as not only students, but also everyone interested can study them. "Our institution already has much experience in distance learning. Cisco Regional Academy with its Gyumri branch, where education and attestation processes are held distantly, is an example of that," the Rector said. It should be noted that this is not the first cooperation program between the SEUA and Synopsys. The Interdepartmental Chair of Microelectronics and automated Systems was formed earlier. Synopsys Corporation is one of world leaders of chip and microelectronic systems production and design. Synopsys has its representations in 60 countries of the world. The Corporation has been organizing its education program since 1986.
