About the Center of Nanoelectronics and Devices (CND)
The CND aims to create an environment in which the electronics industry can thrive in the region and has a vision of becoming an internationally leading education and research Center supporting the growth of the Electronics and Devices industry in the region.
It also aims to prepare a highly trained cadre of professionals. In doing so, the center hopes to develop strong ties with international and local industry in this field.

Qualify for Top Jobs in the Field of Electronics
The American University in Cairo (AUC), in collaboration with the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology (MCIT), announces the launch of a world-class training program in electronics.
Areas of Specialization

Research Projects
The CND conducts its research in its central labs at AUC and ZC as well as a group of well-equipped labs in local universities and institutions where CND has agreements with.

Teaching and Learning
CND hires top junior researchers, and students who can work on industry-relevant research topics.

Services Industry and Academia Support
The CND is planning to overcome the lack of many resources needed by students and researchers by creating the first CAD cloud in Egypt.

Community Outreach
The CND sees itself as part of the VLSI community in the region, and accordingly strengthening the community will eventually add to CND’s strength.

Internship Programs
During internships, students are able to apply their theoretical skills to practical work experiences where they can gain practical knowledge and make connections.
All the knowledge and skills which I gained through CND, made me qualified to apply for a postdoctoral associate position at Cornell University which is one of the top-ranked universities worldwide.
The Center of Nanoelectronics and Devices (CND) offers the opportunities to work on many research-related problems brought by industry giants such as Intel, Synopsys, Mentor Graphics, Helic, and Global Foundries.
