High Tech U in the Classroom
SEMI High Tech U in the Classroom introduces students to the microelectronics industry and its crucial role in the modern world. Through the program, member companies sponsor branded STEM kits that enable teachers to provide hands-on learning experiences that raise student awareness of industry and career pathways.
High Tech U in the Classroom kits are versatile and can be used across various grade levels and content areas. They are also hands-on, cost-effective, and reusable across different student groups. A teacher with a class set of kits can reach up to 150 students in just one day!
We work with two kit partners:
Micro:bit
- Introduces students to coding with sensors, buttons, and an LED array
- Demonstrates the relationship between hardware and software
CircuitScribe
- Teaches students the basics of circuits and electronics
- Can be integrated in various academic subjects and projects

Lessons and Activities
High Tech U in the Classroom kits are accompanied with curriculum that introduces students to STEM skills while making clear connections to the microelectronics industry.
