This project aims at making the transition to using actual tool sets by the students that VLSI design engineers use in industry.

At the initial stage, the EDA Tools VLSI design software was installed successfully and its license was provided to 10 Universities/DAIs. Two candidates from each University/DAI were trained in Singapore.  Later, the scope of the project was extended and three more universities were facilitated by installation of the software and training of their faculty members.
