2. Message from Head of the Department
Dr. Alpana Agarwal
Welcome to the portal of Electronics & Communication Engineering Department (ECED).
It is my honor and great pleasure to introduce the department, which is one of the
leading departments of TIET established in 1975. Since then, it has been widely
recognized for its excellent research and teaching capabilities. We have two strong
undergraduate programs B.E. in Electronics and Communication Engineering, B.E.
Electronics and Computer Engineering, a B.E. – MBA dual degree program in Electronics
and Communication Engineering. At the postgraduate level, we offer M. Tech. in VLSI
Design and M.E. in Electronics and Communication, and PhD degrees.
Our aim is to educate the brilliant youth towards world-class education and to enable
them to contribute to the development of our society. The responsibilities and
dedications of our teachers lead the ECE Department towards an outstanding learning
environment, where the state-of-the-art laboratories, libraries, access to knowledge
resources, extracurricular activities all are present.
Our department offers science-based engineering curriculum. The primary focus of our
curriculum is to impart technical know-how to students, promote their problem solving
skills and innovation of new technologies. Department offers large number of optional courses for providing wide spectrum of
options to the students to pursue their interest. The department has strong industry and government research organisations connect
to abreast the students with the new scientific and technological developments. Undergraduate students are also encouraged to
undertake various research projects.
A very friendly and congenial atmosphere exists for fostering a friendly and healthy teacher-student relationship. The students are
encouraged to compete in today's research and job premises. The curricula of our department are regularly updated to accommodate
the latest developments and breakthroughs in various fields of Electronics & Communication Engineering, and make our graduates
able to accept the emerging challenges in the research as well as industrial premises. Notably the graduates of this Department have
long been engaged in the profession with reputation around the globe.
The department maintains active research groups for carrying out collaborative and interdisciplinary research. We have state of the
art research facilities to support our academic programs and research. The department has following major thrust area: RF Systems
and MEMS, Wireless Communication, Optical Communication, Signal Processing, VLSI Devices, Circuit and Systems. Funding for
research (approximately 5 crores during last five years) help us to maintain and modernise our research infrastructure.
This website provides an overview of the academic programs, research activities of our department, research facilities, profiles of
faculty members, and details of student activities. We hope that whether you are a prospective undergraduate or graduate student, or
work in industry, or another university, or a visitor, you will find this website to be informative.
If you have further questions after browsing this website, please do not hesitate to contact us. You may also correspond with
individual faculty members, or contact them by email, using the addresses shown on the faculty pages.
Our department looks forward to contribute in solving the technological challenges of the society with active participation from all
sections of the society.
Thank you for visiting us.
