To nurture future semiconductor talent and vitalize the industry ecosystem, Samsung Electronics operates a university MPW (Multi-Project Wafer) program for undergraduate and graduate students both domestically and internationally.
We provide MPW support across various process nodes, enabling students to fabricate prototypes of their own designs and verify their results. We further support these students in presenting their outstanding research findings at prestigious semiconductor conferences, such as ISSCC.
Since launching the MPW program through KAIST IDEC in 1995, we have supported the fabrication of over 2,500 chips over the past 32 years. We have continuously expanded our support range, from 8-inch 130nm processes to advanced 14nm FinFET processes and 28nm FD-SOI.
Moving forward, we will continue to strengthen industry-academic cooperation with universities worldwide and expand our MPW support to contribute to the cultivation of next-generation semiconductor talent and the advancement of the research ecosystem.

To ensure our leaders can effectively drive organizational performance, we operate a diverse range of leadership programs tailored to their specific roles. We provide a structured educational journey, starting with the 'Leadership Pipeline Program' to nurture high-potential employees into ready-to-lead managers, the 'New Leader Transition Program' to support new appointees in their role transition, and the 'Executive Competency Program,' which covers a comprehensive spectrum of leadership—from the latest trends in AI and business strategy to organizational culture and humanities. Furthermore, we offer one-on-one leadership coaching with executives to promote reflection and action aligned with the current business environment and organizational challenges, ensuring that the growth of our leaders translates directly into enhanced organizational performance and competitiveness.
In addition, we conduct annual leadership diagnostics and evaluations for all leaders to help them recognize their strengths and identify areas for improvement. To ensure highly reliable feedback, these evaluations involve input from superiors, peers, and subordinates, with strict confidentiality guaranteed for all participants. The results are used by leaders to reflect on their management style and derive specific action plans for improvement. Through this process, we strive to foster the continuous growth of our leaders and build a fair, trust-based organizational culture.

Developmental disabilities encompass both autistic and intellectual disabilities. Due to societal prejudices—such as the misconception that individuals with developmental disabilities may struggle with responsibility or attention to detail—they often face significant limitations in their employment options. To improve this reality and create sustainable employment, Samsung Electronics established 'Stellar Forest' in March 2023 as a subsidiary standard workplace for people with disabilities. Wholly owned by Samsung Electronics, Stellar Forest began with confectionery manufacturing and is expanding stable employment opportunities by identifying various roles tailored to the characteristics of individuals with developmental disabilities.
As of December 2025, 391 employees with developmental disabilities work at Stellar Forest. They produce various products, including the cookies and birthday cards provided to employees, as well as pop-up books. In October 2024, we introduced the P&P (Pop-up & Package) role to broaden job options. Additionally, we are connecting employment with independence by collaborating with 'Samsung Stepping Stone of Hope 2.0' to provide internship opportunities for youth transitioning out of foster care who have participated in confectionery and baking training courses.
