1. Steering Committee (SC);
2. Technical Committee (TC);
3. Local Committee (LC);
4. Industrial Adviser Committee (IAC);
5. Public Relations Committee (PRC).
In the above mentioned committees take part representatives of EPETRUN, European universities, specialists from industry and members of non-governmental organizations involved in electronics. These committees take care of all technical and organizational aspects of the contest and of the whole TIE event.
The contest has two stages:
1. local stage (which takes place in each university centre interested to participate to TIE);
2. final stage (which takes place in an university centre selected by the steering committee at least one year before the contest).
The aim of the TIE event is to help in the process of training young professionals, enable them to acquire skills and competences and become familiar with the requirements of the industry during their academic training. The fact that the contest has an international prestige means that all students, who reach the final stage, have been involved in a challenging project which surely represents a good starting point for their future professional life.
The topics of the contest cover all fields of PCB CAD from parts and footprint creation, to designing schematic projects and developing optimal layouts according to various industrial restrictions (with special placement, routing and finishing issues), ending with post-processing output files. The Technical Committee (technical manager Assoc. Prof. Norocel Codreanu) develops the up-to-date topics and assures also, with the help of Organizing Committee, that the contest takes place in a fair-play climate. All information is available online on the www.tie.ro website, where one can find the regulations, as well as examples from the past editions that give a good overview of the proposed design topics, carefully reviewed by the Steering, Technical and Industrial Advisor Committees.
The Industrial Advisor Committee, chaired by Dipl. Eng. Cosmin Moisa (Continental Automotive Timisoara), participates in the writing of subjects, as well as in the evaluation, and sets the line above which are ranked the students with real knowledge in the field of PCB design, those students being recommended to interested companies as PCB specialists and designers.
