PhD in Semiconductor Devices/VLSI/Device Physics

[saikat89]

Hi,

I am planning to join M.S in MIS/IS next year.

For e.g:-i)http://mays.tamu.edu/info/prospective/undergraduate/mis/
ii)http://business.uc.edu/programs/graduate/ms-is/academics.html

Is it possible to pursue a phd in Semiconductor Devices/VLSI/Device Physics after this? Or, an MS in computer science/engineering/ece/physics is preferred/required for it?:

What is your undergrad? If you undergrad is physics, EE, or similar then you have a good basis for doing a PHD in semiconductor/VLSI/device physics. Getting a Masters in some other subject will not change that.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply!My undergrad is in Electrical Engineering (focused on power systems).
http://www.srmuniv.ac.in/downloads/eee-curriculam_2009onwards.pdfSo, I can go for a phd in PhD in Semiconductor Devices/VLSI/Device Physics after masters right?

Thanks,
