The department has made rapid strides during the last decade in all spheres of education and research. Our undergraduate program has always been known to be one of the best engineering undergraduate programs in the country. We now emphasize post-graduate education and research in a significant way.
In our department, Masters and Doctoral students outnumber undergraduate students today. Our sponsored research activities have multiplied several folds. From 2000 to 2012, there has been a tenfold increase in terms of the sponsored research budget.
The department has set up many state-of-the-art research laboratories and centres such as the Center for Excellence in Nanoelectronics, National Center for Photovoltaic Research and Education, and Telecom Center of Excellence.
We recognize that we have a tremendous role to play in driving our country's technology roadmap in the Electronics sector.
We provide a very informal atmosphere between faculty and students. EE department has always been known for creating an ambience where scholarship flourishes.
Faculty members of our department are not only engaged in cutting edge technology research but are also very passionate about teaching.
We pride ourselves on having persons with an exceptional academic background as our faculty colleagues.
Our department has an ambitious plan of further improving both the quality and quantity of research that can make a difference as well as have an impact at the global level.
We constantly look for bright, young students who have the passion to participate in our research programs.
