Deptartment of Electronics and Communication and Engineering

The curriculum in Electronics & Communication Engineering framed by Anna University lays greater emphasis on design principles and development of Communication models, Signal Processing; Image processing, Embedded Systems and VLSI. In addition to this,the course lays greater emphasis on Electronics Engineering and Computer Engineering which are of utmost importance in today's world.

Electronics engineering is the discipline where non-linear and active electrical components such as electron tubes, and semiconductor devices, especially transistors, diodes and integrated circuits, are utilized to design electronic circuits, devices and systems, typically also including passive electrical components and based on printed circuit boards. The term denotes a broad engineering field that covers important subfields such as analog electronics, digital electronics, consumer electronics, embedded systems and power electronics. Electronics engineering deals with implementation of applications, principles and algorithms developed within many related fields, for example solid-state physics, radio engineering, telecommunications, control systems, signal processing, systems engineering, computer engineering, instrumentation engineering, electric power control, robotics, and many others.And, digital television has eliminated effects such as snowy pictures and ghosting. Telecommunication remains an important part of world economy. The industry’s revenue is placed at just under 3 percent of the gross world product. Throughout the course, students choose from a range of electives, including Image Processing, Data Compression and Encryption, Radar Engineering, Microwave Integrated Circuits, Simulation of Communications Systems, Optical Networks, Wireless Networks, Internet Communication Engineering, Microwave Amplifiers and Oscillator Design, Telecommunication Network Management. They learn about the planning and design, commissioning, performance monitoring, optimization and management of both small scale and complex telecommunication systems. The manufacturing industry in Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering produces radio, television, audio/visual, broadcasting and receiving equipments, hardware and associated software including computer systems, interfaces, security devices, data concentration, data transmission, signaling, satellite and radio communications and telephone equipment. Multimedia services are establishing employment opportunities not dreamed of years ago, for example video conferencing, interactive video on demand, internet broadcasting of conferences and training programmes and the real-time transfer of vast amounts of information.

Industrial Training is an integral part of the curriculum. In keeping with the spirit of the curriculum, the department stresses on nurturing the talent of students for top industries across the globe, or for pursuing higher studies and R&D in National and International Universities.
