IEEE SSCS Women in Circuits
ISSCC 2026 WiC Events:
In conjunction with ISSCC 2026, the IEEE SSCS Women in Circuits is organizing two events for this year’s conference:
Sunday Next Generation Circuit Designer Workshop
Networking Bingo Event
Sunday Next Generation Circuit Designer Workshop
The IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society Women in Circuits (WiC), in collaboration with ISSCC 2026, invites undergraduate students, early graduate students, and young professionals (≤2 years post-undergrad) to apply for the Next Generation Circuit Designer Workshop — a one-day program designed to accelerate careers in circuits, systems, and semiconductor technologies.
This immersive workshop will bring together 26 emerging talents for mentorship, networking, and career development. Participants will:
Join a private welcome session and fireside chat with an industry leader
Gain insights through one-on-one mentoring and elevator pitches
Showcase their work in a competitive poster session
Connect with peers and professionals at an open career panel
Support & Recognition:
WiC will sponsor 13 ISSCC 2026 registrations, with additional support under consideration from SSCS.
Selected participants will be recognized as part of the Next Gen Circuit Designer cohort at ISSCC 2026.
Applications Close: October 6, 2025 at 11:59 PM EST
Networking Bingo Event - Sunday February 15th, 4PM - 6PM
Women in Circuits (WiC) together with ISSCC will be holding a networking and mentoring session on Sunday afternoon. Distinguished panelists from the career panel, WiC members, and other participants will play getting-to-know-you bingo to promote engagement between various members of the community. This will give participants the chance to network and mingle with people across a spectrum of seniority in the field in a casual setting.
If you are attending ISSCC in person, please consider being a mentor.
All are welcome to participate, no ISSCC registration required!
