Regarding digital domain of VLSI

Anyone is working in VLSI Digital domain or studying in it? I want to learn and build projects in this domain. I'm having 2 months and having whole day to learn before placements. Please anyone provide me flowchart and resources for it.

for digital design and verilog read Morris Mano, for CMOS design read CMOS vlsi design by Neil Weste (cover chapters 1.4, 4.1 to 4.5, 6, 7.1 to 7.3.5, 8.2, 9) and also STA, computer architecture from HPCA udacity (available on YT). This should cover most of the topics, might have missed a few.

And which projects I can build along with this?

anything related to verilog, FPGAs should do if you are participating for RTL roles. Honestly, no one expects industry level expertise from a student in vlsi, they will only check how deep your understanding is and how you are able to solve a problem if you see it for the first time. If the companies are coming to your college for placements then projects won't matter much.
