In 2008 Mina-News reported on the creation of the then-brand-new Phelma engineering school that resulted from the merger of ENSEEG, ENSERG, and ENSPG. The name Phelma was selected from around 20 candidates, including PEM, Phytec, Phynatec, and ENS MINATEC! This year, Grenoble Institute of Technology’s Phelma engineering will celebrate its tenth anniversary with a slate of […] >>

The PTA (Upstream Technology Platform) will turn ten on July 2, 2018. To celebrate, the platform will host an event for its affiliates and partners from academia and industry. The platform, which opened in 2008, is operated by INAC and LTM and plays a key role in Grenoble’s innovation ecosystem. Its class-1,000 cleanroom possesses all […] >>

The world’s leading foundries—including Samsung, TSMC, and GlobalFoundries—announced early this year that they would be starting volume manufacturing of MRAM memory, marking a major milestone. Among MRAM’s many benefits: It costs less to manufacture than embedded flash memory, is extremely energy efficient, and offers high communication speeds and a virtually-infinite number of cycles. Spintec’s research […] >>

Leti has been developing FD-SOI, a material that substantially reduces circuit energy consumption, for years. In 2014 the institute signed a partnership with GlobalFoundries, the world’s number-two foundry, to scale the technology up for mass fabrication. This year the partnership reached an important milestone: GlobalFoundries is starting mass fabrication of FD-SOI circuits for the IoT […] >>

Benjamin, Bryan, and Thomas—all second-year students at Grenoble Institute of Technology’s Phelma engineering school—started their electro-pop-rock band Parallax eighteen months ago. In March they came in first in a Grenoble-Alpes University music competition. In September 2017 they were granted “student artist” status, which allows them to earn three ECTS credits each year and skip certain […] >>
