: A collaboration between MIT and Applied Materials has created an open-access site at MIT.nano equipped with 200mm advanced research tools identical to those in high-volume production fabs.

MIT is actively leading a national strategy to reassert U.S. preeminence in the semiconductor industry. This effort focuses on leveraging university research to pioneer breakthrough technologies while building a robust, highly skilled workforce to support domestic manufacturing.

: MIT participates in the Northeast Microelectronics Coalition (NEMC) Hub , a $2 billion federal initiative funded by the CHIPS and Science Act to transition critical technologies from "lab to fab". Modernizing Infrastructure :

: MIT proposes a national investment plan focused on 200mm wafer diameter capabilities, which researchers identify as the "sweet spot" for technology translation today. Building the Workforce Pipeine
