**Duties**:
The CHIPS Program Director will take an active role in supporting ECCS programs to enable frontier-scale research on semiconductors that encompasses transformative advancements in silicon technology and beyond, at material, device, circuit, and system levels to enable a wide range of sensing, communication, and computing functionalities including logic, memory, and interconnect. The impact has boundless potential in emerging technologies, including future computing paradigms, artificial intelligence, power electronics, microelectronics, 6G and beyond wireless communications, and quantum information engineering, which will lead to many of The Industries of the Future. Their work will also strengthen research and education activities by encouraging interdisciplinary and international collaborations between academia, industry, and the public sector to secure our nation's global leadership in semiconductor research.
