The department has 4 fully fledged laboratories capable of handling advanced laboratory experiments in Logic Circuit and Design Lab, Analog Integrated Circuits Lab, Electronics Workshop, Electronics Circuits Lab, Scientific Computing Lab, Microprocessors and Microcontroller Lab, Projects Lab, VLSI Lab, Analog Communication Lab, Digital Communication Lab, Advanced Communication system lab ( Microwave and Optical Communication Lab), etc
The department has an excellent team of 9 experienced faculty members and 3 experienced lab instructors. Faculty members of department of Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) of Universal Engineering college are committed to teach our students the fundamental concepts and the latest trends via smart teaching and learning process. The students are also taught with critical thinking and problem-solving skills as they accommodate their future with confidence.
Our students are guided and motivated to implement the principles learnt in classrooms practically through experimentations in the laboratories and through projects on Embedded Systems, Robotics, Internet of Things etc.
The department has a very active students association AGNI and as part of the same, the department conducts various workshops, Add-on courses, expert talks, Faculty Development Programs and Project exhibitions & competitions on recent trends in Electronics and Communication Engineering in collaboration with industries for the benefit of faculty and students.
The student projects are conducted in-house with the guidance of department faculty and industrial trainers.
The students get opportunities to expand their ideas through different type of club like Innovation Projects, Music, Arts, Sports etc.
ECE Department provides a healthy environment to students and faculty members to carry out inter department collaborative research projects.
The department has a live ALUMNI and the members of the ALUMNI take part in various activities and they offer tech talks and workshops for their juniors.
