?Are you an MSE interested in landing a semiconductor-based job? Do you want to hear how the field may develop over the next five years? Are you curious about the steps that the United States is taking to increase domestic semiconductor manufacturing capabilities? 
 
?This new episode type, with the title “The State of MSE,” is centered around topical, present-day events that have large implications for materials science & engineering. 
 
?In this episode, we welcome Dr. Ming Zhang, an expert electrical engineer with nearly 20 years of experience in the semiconductor industry. Ming has worked as an engineer at Synopsys, Intel and Samsung Foundry. 
 
?Together, we explore the definition, expectations, and possible effectiveness of the CHIPS and Science Act. Specifically, we discuss: 
 
?️What the CHIPS act entails for semiconductors made in the United States.
?The new actions the CHIPS act prompts large companies and start-ups to take. 
?️ How current semiconductor-based research will be affected by the CHIPS act.
