  • B.Tech. in Electronics and Computer Science (ECS):
    B.Tech. in Electronics and Computer Science (ECS) is introduced with an increasing demand for engineers with good programming skills, proficiency in new industrial developments and use of the latest technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Data Science, Internet of Things, Cloud, Edge, Fog computing and Robotics. As the demand for programming-based courses is on an increase, major courses from Electronics & Communication Engineering (ECE), as well as Computer Science Engineering (CSE), are included. ECS graduates will be strong in both hardware and software knowledge. A plethora of job opportunities will be offered to ECS graduates by major companies of ECE and CSE such as Mitsubishi, Nvidia, LinkedIn, Oracle, Infosys, TCS, Wipro, Deloitte, Accenture, Microsoft, Adobe, Google, Cisco to name a few.
  • B.Tech. in Electronics Engineering (VLSI Design & Technology) :
    B.Tech. in Electronics Engineering (VLSI Design & Technology) is initiated in alignment with the semiconductor policy of the Government of India under India Semiconductor Mission (ISM), Govt. of India. The GoI is encouraging the semiconductor companies to set up foundries and plants in India and foresees a requirement of trained manpower in the semiconductor Technologies, VLSI Design and allied areas. Through this program we aim to train and equip our undergraduate students with theoretical and practical knowledge and experience to make them ready to be able to contribute to the semiconductor industry ecosystem here in India. Major VLSI companies in India are Intel India, NXP Semiconductors, Qualcomm India, Texas Instruments in India, Synopsys India, STMicroelectronics India, ARM India, Analog Devices India, Broadcom India. The course curriculum is aligned with and is guided by the model curriculum provided by the AICTE, while retaining the flexibility to update as per the changing industry requirements.
The Department also offers a:
  • Doctoral Degree Program with major thrust areas of Internet of Things (IoT), Aerial Robotics, UAV, UGV, VLSI design technology, Computer Vision & Robovision, VLSI & Embedded System Design, 5G Communication, Software Defined Radio, Networked Control Systems, Applications of Internet of Things, Cognitive Radio, Cyber-Physical Systems, Smart Antenna and 5G Antenna Design, Applications of AI based Techniques, Genomic Signal Processing, Fusion of Medical Images.
Scholars go through the curriculum sessions and then understand the nuances and nitty-gritties in well-equipped and modern laboratories.
To ensure students have exposure to international universities curriculum and culture and develop a holistic approach, department facilitates ‘an exchange programme’ where the students visit top Universities, outside India, in the final year or semester of their degree. This widened horizon and thought process have consistently helped students to become successful entrepreneurs and pursue higher studies in top universities of India and Abroad; IITs, University of Texas, New York University, Ohio State University to name a few. Department is fully integrated with industry and the curriculum enables students to pursue successful professional in companies like BARC, ONGC, British Telecom, TCS, Infosys, Dell, Siemens, Mathworks, Ericsson India, Jindal Steels, Bosch, Tata Motors, Tech Mahindra etc.
The Department has been actively engaged in research publications journals and research projects funded by external agencies like ISRO, DRDO, DST, etc. Teaching faculties have research collaborations with top universities in India and abroad for research-oriented projects. Masters and Doctorates from our department are currently working as faculty, post-doctoral fellows, and research scholars in IITs and in other reputed universities in India and abroad. Department organizes an IEEE international conference once in every two years. Other activities like workshops, seminars, hackathons, and expert talks are also organized by the department regularly. With an aim to nurture and develop the young minds ECE Department have Robotic and Technovatorz Clubs.
