Giving a chip, a life of its own Ever increasing pace of development in electronics, audio and video communications systems and the automation in industry have made an electronic engineer a catalyst for the change of the modern society. Electronics gadgets and communication systems of present age have tremendously improved the quality of life. With the tempo of events throughout the world, it has become essential to have more efficient communication network with the latest electronic devices and circuits. Besides giving a thorough grounding in basic sciences and engineering subjects, the curriculum in electronics and communication engineering lays greater emphasis on deep understanding of fundamental principles and state of the art knowledge of electronic devices & circuits, computer architecture & microprocessors, VLSI & embedded systems, electromagnetic field theory, analog and digital communication, digital signal processing, microwave & broadband communications. The Department of Electronics & Communication Engineering has seen a significant growth over the last 32 years, especially because of the rapid advances in electronics, communications and computer engineering. The department today caters for 90 UG students in Electronics & Communication Engineering in regular daytime program and 30 UG students in evening program with electives in computer communication & electronic switching, fault-tolerant computing, digital signal processing and optical communication. The department is collaborating with the Applied Physics Department of the college for developing a center for excellence and relevance in optical communication i.e. T1FAC-CORE Centre in Fibre Optics & Optical Communication.
