Experienced faculty members all of whom are engineering postgraduates and most of them with PhDs as well, support three core specializations (VLSI & Microelectronics, Communication, Image processing & Embedded system) in the Department.80% faculty of the department holds doctorate degree.

The curriculum includes a strong self-study component and mini projects at all levels so as to develop the students’ independent analytical abilities. Opportunity for innovation and incubation is provided at this stage to successful projects by the institute for industrial standards. The department offers financial support to its young faculty for cutting edge research and also encourages them to undertake sponsored research from industry and government agencies.

Department provides healthy environment to students and faculties to carry out inter department collaborative research in area like robotics, human computer interface, SMART sensor etc. Software Simulation environment (MATLAB, Ansoft HFSS, ORIGIN Tanner EDA Tools, FPGA, Intellisuite, COMSOL, VISSIM etc.) and state of the art are available.

The department has received 6 UGC-MRPS grant. The principal Investigator of a DST-FIST project grant is from this department. 2 Laboratories of the department has received AICTE- MODROB for modernization of the laboratories. The department frequently organises National/International level conferences like AICTE sponsored ,in technical collaboration with IEEE etc. The department also organised National conference sponsored by SERB , GOI. Normally 3 seminars per semester are organised. Atleast 6 workshops by industry experts are conducted in the department for hands on experience of the students. Atleast 4 industry visits are organised per year.

Having undergone such a robust academic program under the supervision of highest quality faculty members, all passing out students of the department are capable of envisage, planning and developing big projects of commercial and research interests in their respective field of expertise. We have our eminent alumnus all over the world contributing to the advancement of the society. We strive to train and empower our students who will make the world a better place by using power of engineering principles, techniques and systems.

Testimonials

I would like to convey my regards to the college along with my department faculties. I would like to show my heartfelt gratitude towards my teachers and T& P cell for guiding me to this success. From teaching me to advising me on academic matters and life, teachers were always beside me. Apart from the academic curriculum, they have always encouraged me to take part in extracurricular activities like sports, fest, tech events, etc which helped me to boost my leadership qualities.

Our college has an amazing campus full of greeneries and very helpful, approachable faculties who give their best in teaching. The research and publication opportunities are also in plenty along with different electronic and coding competitions (Annual Tech Fest included). I have published many papers in conference and journals. Our Training and Placement (T and P) cell is very active with job openings not only on-campus but also off-campus. It has been really helpful.

I would like to thank this institution that has given me the prosperous opportunity to spend such excellent years to flourish my knowledge and to meet some of the finest people of their time. I am also indebted to the cheering faculty members of my department for filling me up with such enthusiasm over the years. I would certainly like to convey my heartfelt obligations to my departmental seniors who have been the kindest beings in this brief journey.

Being a student of the Electronics and Communication Engineering department, it was a dream to be placed as a Radio Frequency Engineer in Amdocs. During the journey, my department itself encouraged me to enrich my knowledge and enhanced my skill sets. The hands-on training and lab classes gave clarity to complex topics on Electronics. Along with two friends, we had published a paper in International Journal using Embedded technology for Women Safety Device. This initiative seeded a researcher mentality inside me. The best thing about the department is the faculty members are always available. Sometimes our research works were extended beyond the class hours
