Electronics and communication engineering is an unstoppable current that is entering into every nook and cranny of existence to manifest human thoughts into actions. Its inherent multidisciplinary approach enables electronics and communication engineers to excel in every field.
The Department of The Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering (E&CE) was established in 1986 with a vision to create innovative, ethical, and sociable Electronics and Communication Engineers. The department has well-qualified, experienced, and committed teaching staff whose main focus is on student-centeredness.
The E&CE department has been offering an undergraduate program in Electronics and Communication Engineering since 1986, when the institution was founded. The current intake is 60 students. The department also started a postgraduate program in 2004, with a specialization in Digital Electronics and Communication, and currently admits 18 students. In 2013, the department established a University-Recognized Research Center, and there are currently 7 scholars pursuing Ph.Ds and 3 Ph.Ds have been awarded. Since its inception, the department has achieved three University ranks in undergraduate program and six University ranks in postgraduate program.
The department has a student association named as Electronics and Communication Engineering Association (ENCEA) that organizes technical seminars, workshops, and invited lectures for students. The resource persons are from industry, academia, and R&D centers. This helps students stay up-to-date on emerging technologies in E&CE. The department also publishes ‘Abhivyakthi’ the department yearly newsletter.
The department has adequate infrastructure and well-equipped laboratories. It is also equipped with LCD projectors for lecture delivery, seminars, and demonstrations, as well as an ICT-enabled classroom. The department has signed three MoUs with the companies Takshila Institute of VLSI Technologies, Govt. Tool Room and Training Centre, and Thejas Embedded Solution Pvt. Ltd.
In addition to the Central Library; Departmental Library has more than 1400 volumes with 378 titles, which include academic and competitive related books.
The department is committed to implementing academic process through university syllabus and identified curriculum gaps. It also provides platforms for teambuilding, leadership skills in students’ community through motivation and communication. The department also builds ethical and leadership skills through interactions with the outside world.
