Career prospects in Physical Design
The increasing demand for smaller, faster, and more efficient electronicdevices is fueling the necessity for advanced Very Large ScaleIntegration (VLSI) technology. The VLSI field is in a constant state ofevolution, presenting new challenges and opportunities regularly.Salaries in this domain can range from 3 lakhs per annum to 20 lakhsper annum, depending on experience and skill set.
In India, the demand for VLSI engineers remains robust, especially in thesemiconductor and electronic industries. The rising demand forconsumer electronics is anticipated to sustain the need for skilled VLSIengineers, potentially resulting in a salary uptrend in the coming year.
