Openings

Most projects here span two or three layers, so we care more about willingness to learn a new layer than about an exact match of background on arrival.

Postdoctoral researchers

Positions are open year-round. The role suits applicants with a background in integrated circuit design, computer architecture, device physics or machine learning systems who want a complete research experience at the tape-out level. The lab provides process platforms, tape-out resources and industrial application settings, and postdocs can lead a full project.

Materials: academic and professional background, two representative papers, and a one-page research plan explaining what you would like to do here and why it needs to be done here.

PhD students

Admission is through the normal channels of the School of Integrated Circuits or the Institute for Artificial Intelligence, including recommendation, application-assessment and direct-entry routes. Getting in touch a year ahead makes it easier to arrange preliminary research or an internship.

Materials: academic and research background, transcript, and a short statement of research interests. Course projects, open-source code or competition work are all welcome.

Master's students

Both academic and professional master's students are admitted. Master's projects usually focus on one concrete module — peripheral circuit design, operator mapping, simulator development or prototype validation — and are carried out in a small group with PhD students.

Undergraduate research

Peking University undergraduates are welcome to join through the undergraduate research training programme, final-year projects or summer research. Students who have taken our courses can continue their course project directly. Undergraduates from other universities interested in summer research should get in touch before March each year.
