Graduates of Computer engineering will be able to communicate in a professional setting, including soft skills, technical writing, presentation, and management skills making them industry ready.

Prepare students for a professional World in development, design, modelling, simulation, optimization of applications in AI/ML, Data Science, IOT and Cyber Security.

Apply the principles and practices of Computer Engineering discipline along with the mathematics and basic sciences to solve the complex engineering problems concerning the issues of environment, safety and economics.

The B.Tech. Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) program is of four years’ duration. Each year constitutes an academic year and is divided into two semesters, making a total of eight semesters. Each semester comprises approximately fifteen weeks of teaching and academic activities.

The teaching–learning process includes theory sessions of one-hour duration and practical/laboratory sessions of two-hour duration. The curriculum is delivered through a blend of pedagogical approaches such as classroom teaching, laboratory experiments, simulation-based learning, and digital tools.

Various methods are adopted to enhance learning, including lectures, hands-on laboratory work, use of EDA and simulation tools, audio-visual aids, e-learning platforms, virtual laboratories, industry visits, expert lectures, seminars, workshops, project-based learning, and industrial internships. This comprehensive approach ensures that students develop both strong theoretical foundations and practical competencies in electronics and communication engineering.

Evaluation

The assessment broadly comprises Internal Assessment (Continuous Evaluation Component) and External Assessment i.e., End Semester Examination. Each course carries 100 marks for theory with 60 marks for Internal Assessment and 40 for End Semester Examination and the practical course carries additional 50 marks. The internal assessment will be through MCQ, Classroom Test, Open Book Assignment, Oral Presentation and Short Projects.

Courses

The curriculum structure of the B.Tech. Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) program is designed based on the fundamental requirements of electronics and communication engineering. The program comprises Fundamental Engineering Courses, Core Courses, Professional Electives, NPTEL Electives, Open Electives, Ability and Skill Enhancement Courses, and Value-Added Courses, ensuring a comprehensive and industry-relevant academic framework.

For theory classes, one credit corresponds to one hour of lecture per week, while for practical sessions, one credit corresponds to two hours of laboratory work per week.

The Fundamental Engineering Courses and Core Courses (CC) are mandatory for all students. The program offers three categories of elective courses: Professional Electives, NPTEL Electives, and Open Electives, enabling students to tailor their learning in alignment with emerging technologies and career aspirations. In addition, students undertake Ability Enhancement Compulsory Courses (AECC), Skill Enhancement Compulsory Courses (SECC), and Value-Added Courses to enhance technical and professional competencies.

The Core Courses, Discipline-Specific Electives, and Generic Electives typically carry 3 to 5 credits each, while Skill Enhancement and Ability Enhancement Courses are generally of 2 credits each. A student is required to earn a minimum of 175 credits to be eligible for the award of the B.Tech degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering.

The program offers specialization tracks from the 3rd semester onwards, allowing students to build focused expertise in the following domains.
● VLSI Design & Technology
● Information & Communication Technology (ICT)

Students can further strengthen their specialization through Professional Electives offered in the 6th and 7th semesters, along with an Open Elective in the 6th semester.
