The electronics market of India alone is valued to be nearing $400 billion. Electronics and Communications is the driving force behind the growth and development of many industries.
The Department of Electronics & Communication Engineering was established in 2009 with the primary goal of providing young individuals with the necessary technical knowledge and professional skills to tackle the challenges in the rapidly evolving field of Electronics and Communication Engineering while promoting research in this area. The department offers a Bachelor of Engineering (B.E) Program in Electronics and Communication Engineering, as well as a Master of Engineering (M.E) Program in VLSI design. The B.E-ECE program is accredited by the National Board of Accreditation (NBA), and the department is recognized as a research centre by Anna University.
The department is committed to not only updating the curriculum but also enhancing its laboratory facilities to keep pace with the latest advancements in state-of-the-art technologies. Some notable additions include the Centre for Smart Antenna Systems and Measurements, an industry-driven IoT Centre, and a specialized laboratory for PCB Design and Manufacturing.
The ECE department has a remarkable track record of nurturing students with a strong emphasis on morality, ethics, and culture. It boasts an excellent team of faculty members with strong teaching skills and a focus on research, contributing to the socio-economic development of the field.
At present, the department serves the educational needs of over 600 students across undergraduate, postgraduate, and Ph.D. programs.
