An opto-electric hybrid module is provided, which is excellent in bending resistance and optical element mountability. In the opto-electric hybrid module, a light-path core 2 of an optical waveguide W is provided on a surface of an under-cladding layer 1, and non-light-path dummy cores 8 are provided on opposite sides of the light-path core 2 in spaced relation to the light-path core 2 as projecting from the surface of the under-cladding layer 1. An electric circuit 4 having mounting pads 4a is provided on top surfaces of the dummy cores 8. An over-cladding layer 3 is provided on side surfaces and a top surface of the light-path core 2, and projects to cover the core 2. The non-light-path dummy cores 8 each have an elastic modulus that is set higher than the elastic modulus of the under-cladding layer 1 and the elastic modulus of the over-cladding layer 3. The optical element 5 is mounted on the mounting pads 4a, and positioned above the projecting over-cladding layer 3. |
