Electronics & Communication Engineering
Overview and Program Outcomes
Electronics rules the modern world. It has a profound influence and has become an integral part of every technology. With a mission to mold the students as the best technocrats and prepare them to face the ever-changing challenges in the electronics industry. The Department of ECE commenced in the year 2007 with an intake of 60 and later expanded to accommodate 120 students in the academic year 2009. Later expanded to accommodate 180 students in the academic year 2013. Since 2013, the intake is 180, besides an additional 20% under the lateral entry scheme. The department has faculty members who have vast experience in the field in both industries and academics. The department has an Advisory Committee, which advises planning of academic matters and development of the laboratories, and upgrading skills of the faculty.
The department has computers with the latest versions of computer software and hardware. All computers are connected through college LAN with a 30 Mbps Internet facility for the use of students and faculty all the time.
The department has the following full-fledged laboratories:
- Electronic Devices and Circuits Lab.
- Basic Simulation Lab.
- Electrical Technology Lab.
- Electronic Circuits and Pulse Circuits Lab.
- Analog Communications Lab.
- IC Applications and HDL Simulation Lab.
- Microprocessors and Microcontrollers Lab.
- Digital Signal Processing Lab.
- Microwave Engineering and Digital Communications Lab.
The department library has 500 titles of textbooks for the UG course. The number of project reports available in the library is 100 for UG. The department takes an active role in arranging expert lectures, guest lectures, and Industrial visits for the benefit of students. Students are encouraged to take up industry-oriented projects. The students are also motivated to present papers in student seminars, paper contests, etc. at various conferences. The department organizes student counseling by the members of the faculty to monitor regularity and discipline among students. About 15 students are allotted to each teacher to guide, motivate and counsel them on academic and other matters. The teacher counselors regularly interact with the students and maintain registers on their progress of the students. Class teachers are allotted to check students’ attendance and punctuality. A Disciplinary Committee comprising the senior faculty is constituted for maintaining discipline and the dress code of the students. Some faculty members are allotted roster duties to check the punctuality of both the staff and students. The department constantly interacts with the alumni and seeks their advice on academic matters. Their suggestions are taken into consideration in various developmental activities of the department. Among the past four batches of students who have graduated so far, 200 students have been placed in reputed MNCs like Tata Consultancy Services, Tech Mahindra, Mahindra Satyam, Infosys Technologies Ltd, Robert Bosch, Computer Science Corporation, Convergys, Mphasis, Syntel, etc. Some alumni have pursued higher studies in Engineering/Management at reputed Universities in India and abroad.
