As an important basis for national strategic development, the IC industry, especially in the current new situation, has significantly increased the industrial heat. The country has always attached great importance to the development of the IC industry, and the industrial scale and product technology have always maintained a leading position in China.

 

Current situation of integrated circuit industry

 

According to the current international situation, the tense economic relations between China and the United States have brought uncertainty to the industrial development of integrated circuits. M & a slowed down significantly, which also increased the market tension. In this situation, the state and local governments successively issued relevant industrial support policies, relaxed the proportion of domestic and foreign investment in the negative list, and the policies first attracted investment. With the support of relevant government departments and industries, the acquisition of Chinese enterprises at home and abroad and the investment of international giants in China also reflect China's important position in the global integrated circuit market. With the independent innovation and development of China's integrated circuit industry, its market scale and enterprise competitiveness will continue to be improved.

 

IC industry in market environment

In today's market price environment, the IC industry has the following status:

 

1. In 2016, the global consumption market of *** semiconductors and integrated circuits accounted for 81.6% of the global semiconductor sales, and the proportion of self-sufficiency only accounted for 10%. There is a huge space for localization and substitution

2. Patent protection system is not perfect

3. Shortage of high-end talents

4. The society pays high attention to the integrated circuit industry

 

The demand for talents in IC industry is large

 

In the current social background, the integrated circuit industry is a leading industry, which is undoubtedly an important part of the national industry. In recent years, the integrated circuit industry has made great achievements under the promotion of the state. However, there are still many problems such as low self-sufficiency rate of products. ZTE has recently been sanctioned, reflecting that the integrated circuit industry is the core technology of national security. From this point of view, in fact, it is very important that there is a huge talent gap in the integrated circuit industry.

 

At present, there are several problems in the market for talents:

 

1. Shortage of high-end design talents

2. Talent structure mismatch

3. Unstable talent team

 

According to statistics, by the end of 2017, there were 400000 employees, an increase of more than 30% over the previous year, 140000 in the design industry, 120000 in the manufacturing industry and 140000 in the packaging test industry. It is estimated that in 2020, the number of talents needed will be 720000 and the talent gap will be 320000.

 

Talent training process is the foundation of industry

 

The fresh students majoring in computer science have always been the "reserve grain" of the integrated circuit industry. However, nowadays, the cultivation of computer talents in Colleges and universities tends to focus on the application, while the research on the basic level is sometimes ignored. As a result, under the drive of the market, the computer application specialty is sought after, and the basic computer system architecture is rarely sought after. "How to use a calculator" or "how to build a computer" has become a hot topic in Colleges and universities. At present, colleges and universities are trying to implement the future plan of international leading technology exchange and cooperation and integration with enterprises and international integration.

 

Industry salary and future trend

 

In the IC industry, salary is generally high. High pay has also become one of the pronouns of the industry. It is said that the salary of high-end chip talents of the year can reach 30W +, and the industry white paper says that the average salary level of China's integrated circuit industry is 9120 yuan / month. Even so, there is still a lot of room for growth in the IC industry. At present, the lack of leading talents in the IC industry is the trend of future development.
