China is ramping up efforts to develop home-grown semiconductor talent as it seeks to rapidly fill a chip shortage of expertise.

China is stepping up efforts to cultivate domestic semiconductor ability as it attempts to quickly fill a skills gap.

While entry-level salaries have doubled, certain graduates with degrees in other fields are being drawn into the expanding sector.

A white paper estimates that China will be short 200,000 industry employees this year.

Closing this gap is becoming even more crucial since the U.S. wants to cut China out of global supply chains.

More than 60% of students majoring in chip engineering in China graduate without having held a relevant internship.

TSMC has set up research facilities at four universities in Taiwan.

The average yearly salary for an entry-level engineer in the industry has increased from approximately 200,000 yuan ($28,722.43) to 400,000 yuan.
