TECHCON 2012


	Conference Highlights The Keynote Address will be delivered by Chekib Akrout, Senior Vice President & General Manager, Technology Group at Advanced Micro Devices (AMD). AMD is a strong supporter of SRC research and SRC student programs. The New Frontiers Session will highlight SRC’s incredible 30-year history of innovative research collaboration, as well as look forward to the consortium’s exciting future endeavors.

	“TECHCON 2012 is the only technical conference that I know of where students are front and center. It is a unique opportunity for students to share their research results and for attendees from industry, government and academia to listen and learn. I have attended TECHNON for many years and have always been impressed with the quality of graduate student papers. Last year, for the first time, I also came away impressed by the caliber of undergraduate research students and topics. TECHCON is also an excellent forum for leaders from member companies to network with students and even do some recruiting.” Venu Menon, Vice President, Technology Development, Texas Instruments Chair, SRC Board of Directors and Honorary Conference Chair
