Continuing education in RFIC design?

[Michele.A]

Hi everybody,

I'm an EE with some years experience specifically in the Radiofrequency Microelectronics (7-8 yrs), plus some other @board level microwaves.
I am looking to "enhance" my understanding of this world and to do this I think a good course would be a proper tool.
I've thrown a couple of keywords in Google but I couldn't find anything special (well, there is Les Besser but nothing more).
Ideally, I would like to have one "guru" like Niknejad, Razavi...Kundert to teach one of their courses and having good access to him over a "longer" period.
But probably this is not so easy...I know of MEAD as another possible resource.
Any other suggestion?

Thanks,

Michele

p.s. topics would span from low power circuital techniques, modeling (also very interesting), system level design

MEAD is the resource most used by RFICs companies to train their newcomers. I've been there, in Lausanne, many years ago and it was a good experience for me.

You should carefully take a look at the course offer, there are a lot.

I met many people from different companies, mostly competitors, and from Universities.

I strongly suggest it, there isn't a so large offer of advanced courses.

I hope it can help.

Thanks Mazz,

I've seen they have some interesting course in Lausanne, although the "meat" was in Hong Kong in January...(Lots of Razavi, whom I'd really be interested to meet)...Maybe they'll repeat that soon.
Any other suggestion besides Mead?
