It is possible to attend an extended 2 day course with hands-on practical sessions by booking here

This one-day training program provides participants with both a solid theoretical foundation in piezoMEMS technologies. The course is structured to gradually guide learners from fundamental principles to practical applications.

The course schedule:

Day 1: participants are introduced to the core concepts of MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems), the science of piezoelectric materials, and the use of thin-film piezoelectrics in device fabrication. The sessions combine theory with illustrative examples, demonstrating how piezoMEMS devices are applied in areas such as sensing, actuation, and energy harvesting. In addition, the program offers a detailed overview of SINTEF’s piezoMEMS process and the Europractice Multi-Project Batch (MPB) framework, which provides access to prototyping and fabrication services. This ensures that participants not only gain an understanding of how piezoMEMS function, but also how they can be realized through established industrial processes.

These lectures are suited for students pursuing STEM disciplines, and scientists or engineers who are interested in understanding and applying micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) that leverage piezoelectric materials.
