About the Department
The department has well experienced and dedicated faculty members. Several faculty members have received their graduate, postgraduate and Doctorate degrees from institutions of national and international repute and have been working on in various research areas. The department has state of the art laboratories such as Communication lab, Advanced Microprocessor lab, Electronics circuit lab, Microwave lab, Electronics CAD lab, Devices and circuits lab, Linear Integrated Circuits Lab, Optical fiber communication lab, and VLSI lab to provide the students with the necessary and sufficient backing of practical knowledge, besides encouraging them to carry out their innovative research and development ideas.
Apart from the Core laboratories prescribed by the Anna University, department also has E-YANTRA Robotics Laboratory and also has a Center Excellence in Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT). Certification courses are conducted by these labs/center throughout the year for ECE and other department students.
The department has consistently achieved excellent results in the university examinations and have obtained university rank in the year 2018.
The Department has signed various academic institutions and industries for imparting recent and advanced technical knowledge to the students. The department has MOU with BSNL, to provide real time training for the students in the field of advanced communications. IETE student chapter was established in ECE department and various Symposiums, Seminars and Workshops are organized through it.
Value added courses are offered to the students in areas such as Electronic circuit design using PSPICE, Image and Signal processing applications using MATLAB, VLSI circuit design using Mentor Graphics, Embedded system design using Embedded C are conducted time to time to facilitate the students to improve their creative thinking capabilities, designing and analyzing skills and also create awareness in the technologies which are currently used in the industries.
Apart from the above, Experts from the industry are periodically invited to give lectures/demonstrations to the students on the latest developments in the field. Students are given exposure to industries by industrial visits and industrial training session.
To make the students industry ready, Soft skill training is imparted to the students along with the technical courses from the first semester onwards. Various reputed companies visit the department every year for on-campus placement drives and department holds a placement record of more than 90%
