Recruitment of new faculty and upgrading existing 
faculty
The Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering was 
established in the year 1972. The department has well qualified and highly 
motivated faculty and well equipped laboratories to cater the needs of both the 
UG and PG students. The facilities in the department are also capable to meet 
the requirements of the faculty for their research work.
The branch of 
Engineering offered by the department is one of the most sought after branch by 
all the prospective students and is filled by the meritorious ones. The 
Department offers two PG programmes, one in DEAC (Digital Electronics and 
Advanced Communication) and the other in Microelectronics.
The department 
has got ten fully equipped labs including PCB lab, DSP lab, Fiber Optic lab, 
VLSI lab and MEMS lab. There is also a departmental Library. The associated 
clubs of E& C departments are I.E.(E & C) and IEEE.
In addition to 
their regular teaching of undergraduate and postgraduate courses, the faculty 
engage actively in research work in various areas like Digital Signal 
Processing, Optical Fiber Communication, VLSI design, Nano materials, Devices, 
MEMS, NEMS etc., and publish papers in national and international conferences 
and indexed journals. The students also undertake quality project works and 
publish papers at various prestigious conferences/student paper presentation 
contests under the guidance of faculty members. Students of this department have 
excelled in their assignments in different organizations over the years. This 
fact is substantiated by the excellent placement records and the fact that large 
number of prestigious multinational companies are visiting the department for 
placements.
The department had conducted short-term courses in emerging areas 
of Electronics and Communications such as High Speed Communication Networks Rigid flex PCB, Embedded systems using 
FPGA's ARM Processor etc. In 2005 & 2007 Department has conducted National 
Conferences. Dept is also organizing an International Conference in association 
with IEEE during December 2009.
