==Early life and education==
Line 71:
Su began attending the [[Massachusetts Institute of Technology]] (MIT) in the fall of 1986, intending to major in either [[electrical engineering]] or [[computer science]]. She settled on electrical engineering,<ref name="MIT_2006" /> recollecting that it seemed like the most difficult major.<ref name="SFGate_Wendy" /><ref name="SevenThings_2014" /> During her freshman year she worked as an undergrad [[research assistant]] "manufacturing test [[silicon wafer]]s for graduate students"<ref name="AMDexpandedbio_2016" /> through the [[Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program]] (UROP). The project, as well as her summer jobs at [[Analog Devices]], fueled her interest in [[semiconductors]].<ref name="MIT_2006" /> She remained focused on the topic for the remainder of her education,<ref name="AMDexpandedbio_2016" /> spending much of her time in labs designing and adjusting products.<ref name="SFGate_Wendy" />
 
After earning her [[bachelor's degree]] in electrical engineering, Su obtained her [[master's degree]] from MIT in 1991. From 1990 to 1994<ref name="linkedin">{{cite web |title=Lisa Su Official Profile |url=https://www.linkedin.com/pub/lisa-su/4/336/3ba |website=LinkedIn |access-date=November 19, 2016}}</ref> she studied for her [[PhD]]<ref name="SFGate_Wendy" /> under MIT advisor Dimitri Antoniadis.<ref name="MIT_2006" /> ''[[MIT Technology Review]]'' reports that as a doctoral candidate, Su was "one of the first researchers to look into [[silicon-on-insulator]] (SOI) technology, a then unproven technique for increasing [[transistor]]s' efficiency by building them atop layers of an insulating material".<ref name="MIT_2006" /> She graduated with her PhD in electrical engineering<ref name="MIT_2006" /><ref name="AMDExecBio" /> from MIT in 1994.<ref name="MIT_2006" /> Her PhD thesis was titled ''Extreme-submicrometer silicon-on-insulator (SOI) MOSFETs.''<ref>{{Cite thesis |last=Su |first=Lisa T. |year=1994 |title=Extreme-submicrometer silicon-on-insulator (SOI) MOSFETs |url=https://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/11618 |location=Cambridge, MA |publisher=Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science |hdl=1721.1/11618 |type=Thesis}}</ref>
