Welcome to FCRP
Finding the Ultimate LimitsThe Focus Center Research Program (FCRP) is the cornerstone of the U.S. semiconductor research strategy. FCRP research creates the breakthroughs that are critical to U.S. security and economic competitiveness goals, giving member companies a tremendous advantage in the race to lead the technological revolution. Always long-term and big-picture, FCRP research programs offer mutual leverage to industry and government sponsors. FCRP is also the only university research program that gives the U.S. Department of Defense one-to-one leverage with significant payoff. Founded in 1998, the FCRP program currently involves 35 universities, 218 faculty and over 200 graduate students. The Focus Centers themselves are not physical locations, but rather virtual, each consisting of multiple universities which engage the leading experts at the participating institutions. Each Center is managed by a full-time university Center Director and addresses one of the major technology focus areas of the International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS).
