IEEE-HKN Mu Upsilon Chapter Trip: ISTFA 2026 Free Student Day

Join the IEEE-HKN Mu Upsilon chapter for a day at ISTFA 2026, the 52nd International Symposium for Testing and Failure Analysis, the leading North American conference for microelectronics and semiconductor failure analysis.

ISTFA offers students a complimentary one-day pass on Wednesday, October 7, 2026, at the Henry B. González Convention Center in downtown San Antonio. The pass includes access to the technical program, the Expo Hall, and lunch.

Highlights of the day include:

  • Technical sessions on failure analysis, reliability, and materials characterization
  • The Expo Hall, featuring companies that build characterization and failure analysis tools and services
  • The student poster and video contests
  • Student and Young Professionals programming and discussion

This is a great opportunity to see how the semiconductor industry investigates device failures, talk with engineers and recruiters, and build connections in a field with strong ties to Texas. Students from all engineering backgrounds are welcome.

Registration note: The free student pass must be requested through ASM International (contact Kathy Murray at kathy.murray@asminternational.org). Please register for this vTools event as well so the chapter can coordinate attendance and transportation.

Location: Henry B. González Convention Center, 900 E Market St, San Antonio, TX 78205
