Electronics & Communications Engineering

ECE Department Overview

The Department of Electronics & Communication Engineering is proud to be the first department of the college established in 2001 to offer a Bachelor’s degree in Electronics & Communication Engineering with an initial intake of 20 students. Presently, B. Tech. the degree program has an intake of 60 students. The Department has highly qualified as well as young and dynamic faculty involved in research activities to provide quality education. In addition to this, the department also provides facilities to students in terms of expert lectures from guest professors, video courses, and dynamic curriculum with an emphasis on emerging areas through a variety of elective courses, seminars, and projects. The syllabi of the courses are continuously updated and the laboratories modernized to reflect the rapid changes in technology. With excellent labs and classroom facilities, knowledge of able faculty, challenging and interesting course-work, integrating hands-on practical and research experience are motivating faculty and students for new innovations. Such technological strengths and pollution-free peaceful environment of the Shivalik range of Himalaya, has provided unmatched opportunities for research, education, and service to society. It is really a great time to be a part of Electronics & Communication Engineering where electronics play a major role in daily life with advanced communication technology.
