And my honest response is always: Why should I use Cadence if I already have Synopsys?

Let’s clear the air.

The Illusion of “All Tools”

Many training institutes and colleges proudly say:

“We have multiple tools from multiple EDA vendors. It will help students.”

But how exactly?

• How much access are you getting to those tools?
• Are you doing research or a tape-out level project where you really need tool-specific features?
• If the trainer isn’t available, does the presence of a tool alone teach you anything?

The truth is—just having access doesn’t mean you’re learning.

Learning the Flow, Not the Logo

Whether you learn the PNR flow using Cadence or Synopsys, what truly matters is that you understand the flow and the concepts.

Even the industry’s top timing analysis tools:

• PrimeTime (Synopsys) vs. Tempus (Cadence) — differ by 5–10% in accuracy. But are you here to benchmark accuracy, or to learn timing concepts?

If your goal is learning, one well-supported tool is more than enough.

Tools Are Just Instruments

At VLSI EXPERT®, we made a decision years ago: to be exclusive to Synopsys tools. And for the last 7+ years, we’ve stuck to that. No distractions. No marketing gimmicks.

Because for us, the tool is a means to learn the concept. And once the concept is clear, any tool can be picked up with the help of a user manual.

Tools don’t teach. Trainers do. Concepts do.

We don’t “fool” students by saying we have every tool under the sun. We focus on training that matters—with industry-leading tools, strong mentorship, and clear fundamentals.

A Word to Students

Before choosing a course or institute, ask yourself:

• Are you getting clarity of concept?
• Or just screenshots of multiple tools?

At this stage of your learning, the concepts should come first, not the brand name of the tool.

Unfortunately, due to misguided advice and flashy marketing, many students fall into the wrong mindset.

Jagoo Grahak, Jagoo.

Choose mentorship, not marketing. Choose clarity, not clutter. Choose a concept, not confusion.

But what kind of internship? Is it just about getting a certificate to add to your resume?

Or is it about truly learning, practicing, and growing?

At VLSI EXPERT®, we believe internships should never be done for name’s sake.

That’s why we offer something more than just an internship— we offer an Internship cum Training Program that’s intensive, immersive, and impactful.

Why “Internship cum Training”?

Because this is more than observation.

It’s more than just shadowing someone or doing documentation work.

Here, you’re not watching from the sidelines—

You’re getting hands-on.

You’re working on real-world projects.

You’re learning both the practical tools and the conceptual foundations.

We’ve combined training with an internship so that every student who joins walks away not just with a certificate, but with skills that matter in the semiconductor industry.

Why Do Students Choose VLSI EXPERT®?

The reasons are many, but here’s what students say again and again:

Structured Guidance: Direct mentorship from industry professionals like Puneet Mittal and Niti Gupta, who break down complex topics into digestible concepts.

24×7 Tool Access: You don’t just attend sessions—you practice. Any time, any day. Because real learning happens outside the classroom.

Hands-On Assignments: Carefully crafted to reflect what engineers actually do in companies—be it schematic design, layout, timing analysis, or RTL flows.

Mock Interviews & Career Mentorship: We don’t just train you technically. We prepare you for how to talk, think, and present like a VLSI professional.

Beyond Commitments:

VLSI EXPERT® is dedicated to students.

If you don’t understand something, they’ll explain it again and again—until you do.

They never see you as just a customer who paid a fee.

They go beyond their commitments and help every student genuinely.

Time and again, what starts as a 6-week, 60-hour program often stretches into 8 weeks or even 120 hours, just because students are curious and mentors are committed.

Because the mission is clear:

To help students understand VLSI by heart.

Still Wondering If It’s Worth It?

Check out stories from students who started like you—curious, uncertain, and looking for direction.

They completed this Internship cum Training Program and today, they are working in top semiconductor companies.

“It’s not a course.

It’s not just an internship.

It’s a launchpad.”

If you’re someone who wants to truly understand VLSI, not just write it on your resume—

If you’re someone who values learning over shortcuts,

Then this is the place for you.

Bottom Line?

A name-sake internship might give you a certificate.

But a real internship, with the right training and guidance, will give you a career.

So the question isn’t “Should I do an internship?”

The question is:

“Do I want to learn, grow, and stand out?”

If the answer is YES, then you already know where to begin.
