Beyond Textbooks: An Insider's Perspective on RF and Microwave Design

The objective of the WAMICON 2025 Young Professionals (YP) and Women in Microwaves (WiM) workshop aims to provide an insider's perspective on RF and microwave design.Join us at the Q & A panel where experts from industry and academia will share key considerations for successful RF design and highlight how system-level factors can add complexity to even the most simple designs. While textbooks and hands-on practice in school build a strong foundation, a true systems-level understanding comes only with practical design experience. This panel will offer valuable insights to help bridge the gap for young professionals between academic learning and practical, real-world RF design challenges.

 

Listen to interesting anecdotes from industry and academia and get a chance to participate in a Q & A session while enjoying delectable treats provided at the session.
