South Korean tech giants Samsung and SK Hynix collaborate with universities to create contract departments that offer students scholarships, specialised AI and semiconductor engineering curricula, and direct employment pathways, intensifying competition for spots and creating a steady pipeline of skilled workers.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of AI & ML.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You face a talent gold rush as Samsung and SK Hynix monopolise top AI and semiconductor graduates through university-linked programmes. Act fast to build relationships with these contract departments or risk being locked out of the best local talent.
