**Wecome message from the General Chair**

Dear Esteemed Colleagues, 

On behalf of the IRPS Management Committee and the IRPS Board of Directors, it is my pleasure to welcome you to the **2026 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium (IRPS)**, taking place **March 22 - 26, 2026**, **in Tucson, Arizona** - our first time meeting in this remarkable city. Now in its 64th year, IRPS remains the premier venue for presenting and discussing advances in the reliability of semiconductor devices, integrated circuits, and microelectronic systems. Our global community spans industry, academia, and research institutions, united by a commitment to deepening our understanding of the physics of failure and real-world reliability challenges. 

IRPS 2026 begins with **two days of Tutorials**, offering both foundational and advanced sessions covering topics across devices, circuits, systems, and advanced packaging. Our **Year in Review** presentations will highlight major developments shaping next-generation technologies. 

The technical program features **distinguished keynote speakers** from leading companies, national laboratories, and research organizations, along with a rich set of contributed and invited papers presented across **three parallel tracks**. We are pleased to again host invited talks from award recipients at **ESREF 2025** and **IIRW 2025**, strengthening collaboration across the global reliability community. 

On Tuesday evening, IRPS will host **interactive workshops** for in-depth discussions on emerging reliability topics. A **mid-week poster session** will offer another lively opportunity for technical exchange. 

I extend my sincere appreciation to our patrons, exhibitors, authors, reviewers, and attendees - your contributions and continued support make IRPS possible. 
I look forward to welcoming you to **Tucson** and hope you enjoy its world-renowned and unique desert setting, as we gather for another outstanding IRPS.
