WEEKLY REVIEWS
Every design choice is audited by a senior practitioner. Students undergo rigorous technical reviews to justify component selection, routing paths, and stackup strategies.
DESIGN CORRECTIONS
Receive direct red-lined schematics and layout feedback. We simulate a professional engineering environment where "close enough" is never accepted.
INDUSTRY STANDARDS
Training grounded in IPC-2221/2222 standards. We bridge the gap between academic theory and the practical constraints of modern fabrication and assembly.
