About Department

Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE)

Since the institute was founded, The Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) has been in operation since 2007. The department features a team of highly qualified faculty members with Ph.Ds. and PGs across a range of fields, focusing primarily on cultivating high-quality engineers who are dedicated to making meaningful contributions for a brighter future. The curriculum and syllabi are thoughtfully designed and updated regularly to meet the evolving societal and technological needs. Our modern facilities provide practical training with the latest engineering tools, encouraging students to refine their skills through hands-on experience. Additionally, we present a variety of opportunities for professional growth through seminars, guest lectures, short-term training programs, workshops, and conferences that are routinely organized for our students and faculty, both within and outside the institute. Furthermore, our department aims to build partnerships for research and development with leading organizations in India and internationally.

Courses Offered

1 M.Tech VLSI Design 18
2 M.Tech Digital Communication 18

M.Tech in VLSI Design:

The M.Tech in VLSI Design is a two-year postgraduate program that seeks to provide knowledge in VLSI system design, which includes algorithms, hardware description languages, system architectures, physical designs, verification techniques, simulation and synthesis, as well as low power design techniques, among others. Recent advancements in VLSI design have allowed most systems to become more compact and reliable, enabling them to deliver data at high speeds. The emergence of VLSI designs has led to a rapid increase in the applications of integrated circuits (ICs) across various fields such as high- performance computing, controls, telecommunications, image and video processing, and consumer electronics. With ongoing advancements in technologies such as process geometries and product innovations, there is a continuous demand for the design, development, and re-engineering of ICs. As products like mobile phones are launched with new features in increasingly shorter cycles, there is a strong demand for qualified VLSI engineers to contribute to these developments. Consequently, there is significant potential and high demand for engineers in the rapidly evolving chip design industry.

M.Tech in Digital Communication:

The M.Tech in Digital Communication is a two-year postgraduate program structured to provide an extensive exploration of current electronics and communication methodologies. This specialized curriculum is intended to equip students with advanced knowledge and skills necessary for the design, analysis, and application of digital communication circuits and systems. Throughout the program, students will examine topics including digital electronics, modern DSP, antenna theory and design, error control and coding, advanced embedded systems, and computer architecture, empowering them to confront real-world challenges in the telecommunications industry. Moreover, the curriculum includes a thorough overview of fundamental modulation techniques, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing, and channel coding methods. Practical exercises and research opportunities are integrated to enhance students' abilities to innovate and adapt to the evolving technologies in the field.
