About Department
Year of Establishment: 1994
Preamble: The Department provides an unrivalled education in
Electronics and photonics. The department has vibrant atmosphere with a
combination of strong academic and research activities. Both compliment
each other and the students at all levels under the able guidance of the
faculty members maintain this brilliant combination and help the
Institute to reach the zenith of knowledge and innovation.
Department conducts courses leading to M.Tech. (Optoelectronics
& Laser Technology) and M Sc (Electronics). All students joining the
M Tech course are required to undergo one year project in an industry
or R&D organization and industrial training. The curriculum of these
courses is updated regularly to keep it in consonance with the changing
industrial environment. It is our mission and vision to implement a
curriculum at our University which is at par with the best in the world.
Since its birth in 1994, the department has grown in an exponential
manner.
The School of Studies in Electronics jointly in collaboration with
School of Studies in Physics, is running a Two-year M. Tech Programme in
Opto-electronics and Laser Technology sponsored by University Grants
Commission under its INNOVATIVE PROGRAMME: Teaching and Research in
Interdisciplinary and Emerging Areas. The M.Tech program has been
started as an endeavour to attract best of the minds towards teaching
and research and to give emphasis in teaching and research in emerging
technologies. It has been developed realizing the rapidly growing need
for well trained manpower in the field of optoelectronics and lasers.
Our M. Tech programme emphasizes practical applications of photonics and
provides an educational experience relevant to the student's future
career in the photonics-based industry and R & D organizations.
The teaching in the department is closely coupled with the research
activities of the department. The teaching program contains a proper
blend of basic concepts and advances in technology. The faculty has
succeeded in keeping a lively atmosphere among the students, with timely
up gradations in the curriculum and innovative teaching techniques. The
research thrust of the department is on achieving scientific and
technological excellence, through front line research problems with
broader socio-scientific relevance. The faculty members are actively
engaged in research as well as supervision of research leading to a Ph D
degree in the field of optical electronics, semiconductors, Speech
& Image Signal Processing and microelectronics. The Department has
international collaborations and several research projects funded by the
UGC, CCOST, USIEF and UK-India Consortium British Council.
The Department actively helps the students in their placement
through Campus interviews. Students post graduating from the Department
have found positions in both government and private organizations
working in Education, Research & development in Photonic
Applications, Telecommunications and Semiconductors.
