On a scale of 1-10, how do you rate a "very competent" VLSI designer
on each of the following subjects:

Logic & Computer design
Physics of the Transistor
Transistor circuits
etc

Please indicate how much of the above is taught in programs leading
to Ph.D. in VLSI.  I just graduated with a B.S. in Computer Engineering,
and have had one full year of Basic Electronics in addition to 1 quarter
of "Diodes, BJT and MOS transistor and Operational Amplifiers."  Thus
my EE knowledge in very limited.  Though I have had many classes
in computer software, and hardware.  What other courses would I
have to take?

Thanks in advance,
James Tobin
