On June 6, 2024, Beijing, China - NASDAQ: TER, a global advanced supplier of automatic testing equipment, announced today that the signing and unveiling ceremony of the "Semiconductor Testing Technology Joint Laboratory" with Hefei University of Technology has been successfully concluded. Randy Kramer, Vice President of Global Semiconductor Testing Solutions Engineering, Sam Rosen, Director of Global Regulatory Strategy, Hou Yi, R&D Director of China Engineering Solutions Development Department, Hwai Sern Yap, Market Product Manager for Asia Pacific, and Lisa Liu, Market Communication Manager for China, represented Tereida at the on-site event held at the School of Instrument Science and Optoelectronic Engineering, Hefei University of Technology.

Terrada has always regarded China as an important partner and upholds the long-term support and commitment of "cultivating chips and talents". Randy Kramer, Sam Rosen, Vice President of Hefei University of Technology Ding Lijian, and Dean of the School of Instrumentation Xia Haojie jointly signed an ATE equipment donation agreement. Ding Lijian and Randy Kramer unveiled the "Semiconductor Testing Technology Joint Laboratory". This measure marks a new journey in the integration of industry and education. In the future, both sides will continue to deepen cooperation and jointly explore a teaching model driven by the demand for professional talents and centered on vocational ability cultivation.

Starting from 2019, Tairuida has been collaborating with the School of Instrumentation at Hefei University of Technology to carry out a school enterprise joint training program for specialized talents in semiconductor testing technology. In 2020, we took the lead in offering the new engineering school enterprise cooperation course "Fundamentals of Integrated Circuit Testing" in instrument majors nationwide, with a total of over 1000 students taught in four sessions. Starting from 2022, both parties will jointly adopt the school enterprise dual mentor system to carry out professional degree graduate training. Seven graduate students have entered Tairuida for research on semiconductor testing technology projects in the past two terms.

After the signing and unveiling ceremony of the joint laboratory, representatives from Tairuida and leaders from He Gong University held a symposium on future cooperation plans. The two sides reached consensus on how to promote technology research and development, talent cultivation, and integration of industry, academia, and research. Ding Lijian, Vice President of Hefei University of Technology, Huang Yunzhi, Dean of the Undergraduate School, and Huang Fei, Director of the Professional Degree Education Office of the Graduate School, attended the signing event and exchange symposium. Xia Haojie, Dean of the School of Instrumentation, presided over the meeting. Ding Lijian, as a representative of the school, delivered a speech welcoming Tereida's outstanding achievements in the field of semiconductor testing. He fully recognized the achievements of the collaboration between the School of Instrumentation and Tereida in teacher training, undergraduate teaching, innovation and entrepreneurship, graduate education, and other areas of integrated education. He pointed out, "As a strong engineering university with distinctive educational characteristics, Hefei University of Technology has closely followed the pace of the times and industrial development, providing a large number of urgently needed high-end technical talents for the semiconductor industry. He hopes that both sides will continue to deepen cooperation, expand direction, and cultivate more outstanding talents for the development of China's semiconductor testing industry."

Randy, Global Vice President of Tereida, expressed optimism about the prospects of cooperation between the two sides, emphasizing, "As a global company focused on integrated circuit testing equipment and collaborative machines established for nearly 70 years, providing testing solutions for high-quality and cost-effective electronic products is our vision, and it has always been consistent. China is an important part of the global semiconductor and electronic product industry, and Tereida will continue to provide strong support for the Chinese integrated circuit industry, further improving the scale and level of the testing talent pool through internship projects, undergraduate/graduate professional courses, and the establishment of joint laboratories."

In recent years, with the continuous progress of semiconductor technology and rapid changes in the market, the industry's demand for testing talents has become increasingly urgent. School enterprise cooperation is an innovative educational model for cultivating skilled talents, and it is also the best way to combine theory with practice. Tereida will introduce cutting-edge testing technology and rich practical experience into education and learning, thereby helping the Chinese market cultivate integrated circuit testing talents with international perspectives and innovative spirit. Randy Kramer issues teaching qualification certificates to teachers who participate in the course and have been authorized by Tairuida, and Hou Yi issues graduation certificates to students who pass the course assessment. As the first enterprise to establish ATE (Automatic Test Equipment) courses, the teaching qualification certificate and course completion certificate issued by Tairuida not only affirm the skill strength of students, but also provide strong proof of the achievements of ATE knowledge promotion. In the future, Tairuida will continue to deepen cooperation with universities, continuously promote innovation and development of testing technology, and inject testing "core" power into the prosperity of China's semiconductor industry.
