DEPARTMENT : ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING

ABOUT

Department of Electronics Engineering

Electronics is the branch of science, engineering and technology that deals with electrical circuits involving active electrical components such as vacuum tubes, transistors, diodes and integrated circuits, and associated passive interconnection technologies. The nonlinear behavior of active components and their ability to control electron flows makes amplification of weak signals possible and is usually applied to information and signal processing. Similarly, the ability of electronic devices to act as switches makes digital information processing possible.
Department has state of the art laboratory infrastructure. The Department received NBA accreditation for three years from 2018-19, In the NBA first cycle, the Department scored the highest marks in the institute. Department runs project based learning concept, under this students are encourages to take research based innovative project development work as per the need. The institute provides financial sanctioning to such projects. Projects developed by students are deployed in the institute. Department students are also encouraged to participate in the ROBOCON competition every year.
Department has signed 42 MoUs with various industries for conduction of guest lecture, Internship for students, project collaboration, industry visits, finishing school conduction for soft skill development of students etc. Department has a separate library for students, faculty and staff to access different books and study materials. Department library consists of 221 numbers of text books ,113number of reference books and study materials. As a social commitment and for economical support to poor and needy students, the institute started helping hand fund policy under which department faculty and staff contributes every year for this noble cause.
The Electronics Engineering Department received a donation of Lab-In-Box from ARM which consists of 10 ARM cortex M0+ FRDM KL25Z development boards from Freescale Semiconductors and 100 floating licenses of Keil mdk professional under lab setup by Eduvance Vanmat Technologies Pvt. Ltd, Mumbai.
