The Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) was established in the year 1996 with the vision of developing the department as a Centre of Excellence in R&D, in the field of Electronics and Communication Engineering and make the students blossom into meritorious and self-disciplined engineers by hard work.

Our mission is to develop innovative and simple instructional material to drive the concepts into the minds of students and infuse scientific temper in the students and guide them towards research in communication engineering.  Also to grow a committed group of competent teachers striving for excellence, be it in teaching or research and to develop Collaborative Research and Development linkages with leading organizations in India and abroad.

The Department has been accredited by NBA (National Board of Accreditation) in the year 2003 and well-equipped with the state-of-art laboratories.

The Department is ISO9001 certified and also accredited by the National Board of Accreditation.  The department consistently earns University ranks by both Under Graduate and Post Graduate students.

• B.E. in Electronics and Communication Engineering
   
• M.E. in Communication System
   
• M.E. In Applied Electronics
   
• Ph.D / MS (by Research)

To improve Teaching Learning Process:

• The department consistently organizes faculty development programmes sponsored by Anna University, short term training programme sponsored by AICTE – ISTE and national workshops sponsored by Tamil Nadu State Council for Science and Technology for the faculty, researchers and students.

• A National Conference on “Bio–Signal Communication & Networking - NCBCN 2005” was organized.

• The department has organized International Conference on “Wireless Communication and Networks”, “Intelligent Sensing & Information Processing”, in collaboration with Melbourne University, Australia and HiPAAC 2007.

• As part of research, both Under-Graduate and Post-Graduate students are encouraged to carry out their project in resent research fields across various areas of Electronics and Communication.

• As part of the curriculum they also publish their work in National and International Conferences and Journals

• The department is carrying out following funded projects:

  • SSN funded project on Reconfigurable optical components based on photonic band gap materials

  • AICTE funded project on Reconfigurable Wavelength Selective Filter based on One Dimensional Photonic Bandgap Structures in Silicon for Roadm Applications

  • IGCAR funded projects on Design and Development of Wireless Sensor Node and FPGA Design for Pulsed Signal Processing
