One of the top advantages of Electronics and Communication engineering is that it offers students complete freedom to switch between the software industry and the hardware industry. The job industries are varied and depending on the individual’s skills and interests, the range of options will vary. Many MNC companies prefer ECE engineers when compared to engineers from other fields.
What are the best practices in the program you are doing?
Some of our best practices are that we provide coding skills that are enhanced by CRT classes. The college also has a carrier guidance cell whose aim is to increase the confidence of students to build their careers. We also provide research activities that are encouraged by research clubs. We also focus on extracurricular activities and have collaborative activities guided by IQAC.
How does the program ensure that students are being prepared for the future?
Our B.Tech. and M.Tech. programs create an environment for learning. We also promote and inculcate research activities with the help of incubation cells and the IIC. Our students are also offered to visit industries like radar stations, NSTL, and BSNL. These allow them to observe what skills are required from them and what they must do to make them fit for industry needs.
