What is MEMS engineering?

MEMS engineering involves the design, fabrication, and testing of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS), which are tiny devices that combine electrical and mechanical components at a microscale. MEMS are used in a variety of applications, including sensors, actuators, and microfluidic devices, commonly found in smartphones, automotive systems, medical devices, and more. MEMS engineers work on the development of these devices, utilizing specialized fabrication techniques and materials to create innovative solutions for a wide range of industries.
