As deep-sub-micron and beyond technology emerges, quality assurance of microel ectronic circuits and systems becomes more important than ever. Consequentially, (1) a strong need for well-educated microelectronic circuits and systems test engineers is desired by the industry, (2) graduate-level research efforts are also called to overcome numerous micro- electronic circuits and systems test issues. This paper is to address issues related to increasing impact of the electronic circuits and systems test field on education in electrical and computer engineering and to propose suitable educational topics for undergraduate and graduate-level electrical and computer engineering courses.
