Semiconductor technologies are becoming a fundamental platform for future computing and social infrastructure through integration with artificial intelligence (AI) and quantum technologies. To create the next-generation semiconductor industry, it is essential to develop diverse talents, ranging from engineers who support manufacturing, design, materials, and equipment technologies to leaders who create new values through system-level innovation. In an era of rapid technological change, talent development should not be regarded simply as a one-way process in which universities educate students and provide human resources to industry. Continuous circulation of people and knowledge among academia, industry, and research organizations is required. Collaborative research environments where researchers, engineers, and students work together on challenging technological issues will serve as a foundation for developing future leaders. Building such a talent ecosystem is crucial for the sustainable growth and competitiveness of the semiconductor industry.
