Electronics and Communication Engineering (VLSI Design)
Institute of Engineering and Technology

Objective

The field of Computer and Communication Engineering is evolving at accelerated pace with convergence of computers and communication systems. This requires engineers to have skills in Programming as well as capability to update in cutting edge technologies like Internet of Things, 5G and Wireless technologies, VLSI. This program aims to provide a strong foundation in Computer Science, Communication Technology along with Design and Management courses, while providing flexibility for Discipline /Interdisciplinary Specializations. A mandatory two months Practice School-1 at the end of the second year and six months Practice School-2 in the final year allows them to get practical knowledge and valuable insight into the world of Computer Science and Communication Technology. Well-equipped labs and research facilities along with an excellent faculty provide the necessary pathways to aid the process of learning.

Career Prospects

Designed to create innovators of tomorrow, this programme prepares the students to take on challenging careers in the fields of communication system design. and maintenance, link budget, security and performance monitoring.

Specializations

Specializations allow students to acquire advanced skills and knowledge in a specific area of their main program. The curriculum for the first two years remains the same for all students, providing a solid foundation in core engineering principles.

In their third year, students can choose to specialize in one of the following areas, requiring the completion of at least three courses within the specialization:

Data Science
  • Foundations of Data Science
  • Natural Language Processing
  • Business Analytics
  • Data Visualisation
Cloud Computing
  • Parallel and distributed computing
  • Cloud computing architecture
  • Cloud Services and technologies
  • Fog and edge networks
  •  
Big Data Analytics
  • Big data storage and architecture
  • Multi-dimensional and advanced databases
  • Mining massive data-sets
  • Social network analysis and business analytics
Cyber Security
  • Introduction to information security
  • Fundamentals of cyber security
  • Secure Analytics and Coding
  • Cyber Forensics
  •  
VLSI
  • CMOS VLSI
  • VLSI Physical Design
  • VLSI testing and verification
  • IC Fabrication Technology/ Real time operating systems

Minors (Interdisciplinary)

For students interested in expanding their horizons beyond their primary field of engineering, minors offer a valuable opportunity. Minors complement the main degree and can enhance employability, facilitate interdisciplinary learning, or serve as a stepping stone to further education.

 

The minors currently offered at the institute include:

  • Design
  • Banking in Fintech
  • Entrepreneurship
  • Robotics
  • Mathematics

Successfully completed specializations and minors are prominently noted on the students’ degree certificates alongside their main field of study. This recognition highlights their additional qualifications and can significantly enhance their profiles for potential employers or academic opportunities.
